“Why Should I Practice Tai Chi?”

Tai Chi (also referred to as Taiji, Tai Chi Chuan or Taijiquan) is an ancient Chinese martial art that utilizes slow, graceful movements accompanied by deep breathing. It is, in essence, a form of moving meditation that relaxes the mind and body while building strength and cultivating Qi (energy). Studies have associated Tai Chi with numerous health benefits including:

• reduced stress, anxiety and depression
• better balance and coordination
• stronger bones (helps prevent osteoporosis)
• improved immunity
• increased muscle strength
• relief from arthritis, knee pain, back pain, headache and fibromyalgia
• lower blood pressure

As a form of exercise, Tai Chi provides a thorough, low-impact workout for the entire body. The movements are easily modified, making them suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels, from young athletes to older adults to people with chronic illness or disability. It is therefore no surprise that Tai Chi is one of the most popular forms of exercise, practiced by millions of people around the world.

Interested in Kung Fu? We have a Kung Fu class for you, too!
