About Tai Chi

T’ai Chi Ch’uan (T’ai Chi) is a slow motion, moving, meditative art for health, relaxation, stress reduction and self defense. T’ai Chi is easy on the joints and can be enjoyed by people of any age or physical condition. For centuries T’ai Chi has been passed down as a method of promoting physical, mental and emotional wellness by gently exercising the mind, body and spirit simultaneously. Originally created in China as a powerful martial art to be used for self-defense, T’ai Chi has survived the test of time due to its many other vital benefits.

T’ai Chi brings together mind and body, setting the stage for its graceful, flowing and harmonious movements. Detailed and precise in nature, T’ai Chi calls forth an alert yet calm mindset. Through practice, a new awareness of one’s body and its relationship to its surroundings is developed. Due to the relaxed pace of T’ai Chi, many people report a deeper feeling of relaxation throughout their day.

By embarking on your study of T’ai Chi Ch’uan, you are opening the door to a lifetime of health, relaxation and spiritual development. In addition, self defense skills, physical strength, flexibility and coordination are direct benefits enjoyed by those who practice regularly.
