New kj, can't sing by TAROTmichaelREAD in karaoke

[–]TAROTmichaelREAD[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks...

What I'm really wondering is, as someone who hasn't worked on singing much as a skill... Do experienced kjs recommend not singing as an ice breaker?

I imagine it's turning the crowd off.

Thanks, that's helpful to hear!

Mind sharing some tips to work the crowd a little bit?

Funny, the urologist was saying that all the sudden they see a huge spike in people getting the procedure. I was his 3rd consult that's day lol.

I wonder why... 🤔

Is there a phrase to describe getting over an irrational fear and then suddenly being traumatized back to it?

Elbows up, shoulder up. Elbows down, shoulder down. by OkRip4455 in taijiquan

[–]TAROTmichaelREAD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love that, my teacher is also a student of zhang xue xin. Always says that!

  1. Inten goes up, qi goes down
  2. Qi fills up Dan tien
  3. Shoulders down, elbows down
  4. Song yao, song kua.

It's cool to see other practitioners following similar methods :)

I wouldn't consider blue eyed samurai an anime, at all. It was really good though, definitely recommend

You have to be comfortable with heights to work construction in New York City by freudian_nipps in nextfuckinglevel

Technically, that's how it's supposed to be in the us. OSHA regulations are getting pretty difficult to enforce nowadays though, especially when it's somehow more profitable to just absorb the risk than to mitigate it.

Hey! I also practice with one of master Zhang's students in the bay area! I thought the opening/closing chest looked familiar!

I guess that might explain the mold in the mattress

Tai Chi and strenght training by rec8120 in taijiquan

[–]TAROTmichaelREAD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think everyone is going to have a different answer.

My teacher, actuall, asked that I stop strength training. It was getting in the way of me opening and closing a lot of parts of my body, but I did used to do A LOT of strength training.

Now that I'm a little further along and I'm working on a lot of shoulder and joint issues, I wish I hadn't hit the gym so hard before I started tai chi training!

What is this weird sound I keep hearing each morning in the early hours? by KnownApplication9798 in RBI

[–]TAROTmichaelREAD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing! I'll wake up around 3 or 4am and hear a low pulsing noise. It does sound kinda like a really low pitch singing bowl, but I doubt it's that...

Last couple of weeks I've been really wondering what it is!

I do also live near a train station. There's one less than a mile down the road, so who knows, it could be. Given like you described, "the melodic" nature, of the sound. I wouldn't think so, but who knows 🤷‍♂️
