Tai Chi
Tai Chi is a system of flowing, gentle movements originating in China and based on ancient martial arts that benefit the mind, body and spirit. It helps to 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……”
Even thinking about finding a class is a positive step but 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, and become 'body aware' ... of your body ... that's the place in which you live all of your life!
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.
