It had taken him a minute to figure out that one until he settled for breathing in deeply through his nose and breathing out through his mouth with his lips flapping. Melissa hadn’t specified how long he had to do the breathing exercise, so he kept at it for a few minutes. It made him feel a bit light-headed.
Then it was time for Tai Chi stances.
Struan tried the Snake Creeps Down first, crouching low on his haunches, one leg stretched out. Holding the pose for a few seconds, his muscles began cramping. He’d need to stretch first before he could hold the stance for five minutes.
He tried the Rooster Stance to see how that felt. It was easier holding up one knee and balancing on one foot. After a minute or so, his leg began to hurt, his knee was dropping and his balance was wobbly.
