Tai One On

I wasn't long in Hong Kong, before I saw my first tai chi, and it gave me the strangest notion, the exercisers, advancing all in a row, were line dancing in slow motion. They put their left hand in, right hand out, in, out, in, out, waved them all about and, set to soothing, soulful music, the male practitioners suggestively sang, "If you show me your yin, I'll show you my yang."
