“The more you yield, the further you fly.”

Believe what appears on your time line and you’ll be forgiven for thinking that pushing, striving, and coming out on top, is what it’s all about.

But the Tao slips quietly into the gaps—waiting, watching, yielding.

In Tai Chi, we draw the bow not to show strength, but to feel when the string’s ready to let go. Soft doesn’t mean weak. Stepping back isn’t surrender—it’s strategy in slow motion.
