Tai Chi Overview

Tai Chi is an ancient Chinese form of co-ordinated body movements, focusing on the cultivation of internal energy (called "CHI"). Its aim is to harmonize the mind, body and spirit, promoting both mental and physical well-being, through softness and relaxation. When practised correctly, the movements (or Form) of Tai Chi appear rhythmical, effortless and in continuous flow.
Through such practice the student becomes revitalised, relaxed, tolerant, self-confident and stronger and healthier in both mind and body.
Unlike most forms of exercise and sport, Tai Chi Chuan does not rely on strength, force or speed, making it ideal for people of both sexes, young and old alike whether strong or weak. It is this approach that makes Tai Chi such a unique art, and one that brings benefits in many areas.
