Tai Chi, also referred to as Tai Chi Chuan and Taijiquan, is the ultimate health and defense system started by a Chinese Sage by the name of Chang San-Feng. The movements throughout the the entire Tai Chi form emphasize both firm and soft postures aimed at developing inner self-control. All the movements are practiced at a slow, meditative pace in order to develop control over one's pwn energy force and balances. The energy force, or Qi (chi), as the Chinese refer to it, takes natural breath control and the awareness of the body to develop. Tai Chi Chuan combines all of these healthy attributes to bring about total internal and external strength and rebuilds one's spirit and body.

The benefits of Tai Chi are:

  • It warms the body in the winter and cools it in the summer.
  • It develops good posture, resulting in relief of back pains
  • It promotes deep breathing, develops the lungs to their normality, and tones up the heart
  • It promotes digestion and enables the stomach to absorb the nourishments from food more efficiently
  • It lowers blood pressure and reduces stress
  • It prevents lime formation or precipitation in the bones
  • It regulates blood circulation
  • It cleans the digestive system
  • It wastes no energy, induces perspiration, eliminates waste, and expels dampness and excess water in the body
  • It promotes the assimilation of nourishment from food thus mending the bones and the marrow
