Julian Skinner of Zenways led a morning tai chi class on the Southbank, encouraging us to question the pace we live our lives in this wonderful but frantic city. Tai chi is a form of slow-moving meditation. Set against the backdrop of London’s fast paced commuters it paints a picture of poetic contrast and raises questions about the benefits of stopping, breathing and getting in touch with ourselves and our surroundings.
