I am taking Tai Chi lessons from Sifu Marek for the last couple of years. Before this,
I had a rather sedentary schedule (I am a professor of Physics at the Hebrew University).
Tai Chi has put me in contact with my own body and makes me feel alive and happy.
Marek is a wonderful teacher and I enjoy every moment of this wonderful rediscovery of life and the world.
As a consequence, I discovered how my Dan Tien can extend and express its vital force in other contexts:
TI Swimming, Argentinean Tango, Feldenkrais motion awareness...
The group of people which Marek has gathered and trained is very inspiring and supportive and practices
a very deep and rigorous Chen Pan Ling Tai Chi style.
I can definitely say this experience has changed and still changes my life from good to better and better.

Tai Chi and its Virtues
I have been practicing Tai Chi with Marek for 13 years now in the magnificent park of the roses,near the Knesset,
in a magic space of cedars trees, water flowing , a lake and more specifically under a cherry-tree……….
Today, after such a long time, I think I can analyze what Tai Chi has given me and how it has changed my life..
I have been a dancer all my life and practiced ballet until today……but Tai chi has other merits and virtues:
first it is gentle, does not ask from the body a very strict and difficult discipline as ballet.
When I practice it every week and gradually every day, it gives me serenity, and calm and beauty,integration with
nature and a suppleness, a link with my body which is amazing. Tai Chi is for me one of the major arts I know,
and in the chaos of our modern world it brought me such order and direction, and pleasure that I can almost say it is
a metaphysical miracle, a meditation in movement which indeed surpasses all the physical arts I have been in contact with.
Its impact on health is also impressive. Moreover, Marek is a brilliant and dedicated master and the group is splendid.
