"Tuck the tailbone in" is a common expression heard in Tai Chi class. For beginners, this may give lots of "?" mark in their heads. Read on to clarify this mysterious expression...

"Tuck the tailbone in"  our teacher would say in class, and I would just sort of wiggle my hips as if I know what I was doing. For the longest time, I was not quite sure what that really meant. I had not much clue how to feel my tailbone. So if you happen to be struggling with this concept, I feel your struggle. It sounds so easy- but not so easy to modern day people who sit all day long squishing the spine.
