the ruler created specifically for taichido.com
to accompany its
'Tai Chi Ruler' DVD
can also be bought separately.
The Ruler is hand crafted by Mr. Robin Lacey.
Robin works in The Bere Forest in Hampshire U.K.
He helps care for that environment and also lectures
on Wood Craft and Forestry. So that it may allow
the flow of Chi through it, a Tai Chi Ruler should
always be made from wood. We consulted with Robin
at length on this issue and he explained that
'hard woods' are those that allow more nutrients
to pass through the grain of the tree, and so
in theory chi energy can be passed more readily
in the same way. We therefore chose to use only
woods such as Mahogany or birch as our raw material,
taken only from naturally fallen trees.
