The TaijiFit PhilosophyThe solution to bringing about World Peace, justice, and equality lies in teaching individuals to find Harmony.When one has found Harmony - when you are in balance - everything works better. When you fall out of Harmony, everything begins to break down.Flow is a key ingredient in the equation of Harmony.We get best at what we practice most; we get worse at what we practice least. We practice Flow.
