About T’ai Chi Chuan (“T’ai Chi”) — “the ancient healing martial art”
Known especially for slow, continuous movements and its gentle flow of energy, the ancient Chinese study of T’ai Chi is practiced as a martial art, exercise, and moving meditation by people of all ages and physical abilities. Each ‘form’ is a series of defined positions joined by movement and weight shift. Depending on the speed at which it is performed, the “short” Yang form, consisting of 13 postures, may take from 3 to 10 minutes. Many studies of western medicine confirm that T’ai Chi is a beneficial tool for stress relief, balance, relaxation, and body awareness and is often recommended for those with arthritis, Fibromyalgia, Parkinson’s, and other diseases that affect balance and movement.
