What is Tai Chi

Health Benefits of Tai Chi

Tai Chi is an ancient Chinese tradition that, today, is practiced as a graceful form of exercise. It involves a series of movements performed in a slow, focused manner and accompanied by deep breathing. Tai chi, also called Tai Chi Chuan, is a noncompetitive, self-paced system of gentle physical exercise and stretching. Each posture flows into the next without pause, ensuring that your body is in constant motion. Tai Chi is low impact and puts minimal stress on muscles and joints, making it generally safe for all ages and fitness levels. In fact, because Tai Chi is a low impact exercise, it may be especially suitable if you're an older adult who otherwise may not exercise.

Who can take Tai Chi

EVERYONE!
Tai Chi is very gentle in movement and can be modified based on your own mobility.
You can do Tai Chi standing, seated, or with support. Tai Chi can accommodate everyone in almost any condition and provide great benefits even in a short period of time.
