Tai Chi is a Chinese system of flowing, gentle movements based on ancient martial arts that benefits the mind, body and spirit. It helps relieve stress and build a flexible and responsive body leading to a sense of physical and mental well being. Tai Chi is reputed to “lower stress; slow aging; boost the immune system; help with asthma, arthritis, and migraines……”
Going to a class and practicing gives you an opportunity to use, relax and stretch your mind as well as your body and to increase your self belief and self discipline. Tai Chi can improve your power, balance and posture. There is increasing scientific proof, if you ever needed it, regarding the health benefits of Chi Kung and Tai Chi. Regularly such detail may be read in the pages of
'TAI CHI CHUAN', the journal of the Tai Chi Union of Great Britain or similar quality journals.
Joining good associations like Longfei Taijiquan Association of Great Britain can also open up doors to new learning and at the same time give you a foot firmly rooted in the rich history of Chinese Arts.

Training in Tai Chi will lead to you ever discovering new aspects of self that in your whole lifetime you would otherwise never realise existed.
How often do people take their mind and body to someone else, give them some money and say, ' I am broken, fix me please because I am helpless'.
Tai Chi is a wonderful way to take responsibility for self and in the
process benefit self with better health and better mind.
If you haven't already, why not try it.
Why deny your own power and choice of destiny?
