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. |
