Posted March 9, 201114 yr Staff This photo was taken in Tampines, Singapore at around 7am in the morning.These elderly ladies are practising what is known as "Tai-ji fan exercises.It is interesting to hear the group of ladies flip the fan open together. The sound is like a "thunderous sound" of a platoon of soldiers standing at an attention!Why do the wrist exercise?Based on the Five Elements concept; flexing the wrist(s) is said to help improve one's liver and gall bladder.Usually, the exercise begins with the Five-element position and there is suppose to be two sets of routines each with six different stances.Did you see some of the ladies holding a fan?
