Tai Chi is an internal martial art of traditional Chinese culture that is valuable in promoting health, developing combat and self-defense skills, improving concentration and longevity. This ancient art uses a series of movements performed in a slow, focused manner and accompanied by deep breathing to reduce the stress of today’s busy lifestyles.
Tai Chi emphasizes complete relaxation, and is essentially a form of meditation, or what has been called “meditation in motion”, but it might well be called “medication in motion.” This gentle form of exercise can prevent or ease many ills of aging and promote the health of the mind, body, and soul through its soft, controlled movements.
