Kicking with the leg itself is not tai chi. You must employ the entire body. Use peng to practice dropping weight through leg. Make sure that the kick follows the form and is powered by the turning/twisting of the whole body. Ask yourself - what is powering the kick?

HOWARD SCHNEIDER Washington Post Students in an advanced yoga class in Washington, D.C., demonstrate some poses. With yoga, tai chi and other Eastern practices moving more fully into the mainstream, the question comes up: What do they actually do? Is yoga just a nice stretch, or will it make you stronger?
