Welcome to this episode in which we explore the subversive side of humour and how it can liberate, inform, expose and undercut in a way that no kick or punch could ever do. In this episode we ask:

1. Why is it that no-one ever chuckles when reading the The Tai Chi Classics?
2. What happens when two taoists and a giraffe walk into a bar and one says to the other..
3. What is the relationship between eyebrows and cul-de-sacs?

Discover the hidden elements that will help you forget a new form, a new approach and a new haircut and allow your Tai Chi to express itself, rather than simply mirror that of your instructor.
