tai chi classes
to improve health
and vitality
"Journal of the American
Medical Association" found that Tai Chi can
help improve the balance of the elderly
and help reduce the risk of falling. In fact,
in comparison to other exercises, including weight
training,
stretching, endurance training, and balance training,
Tai Chi was the most beneficial exercise,"
(JAMA , May 3, 1995, Vol 273).
Many studies have shown Tai Chi can reduce stress,
enhance mental agility, strengthen the immune
system, lower high blood pressure, increase balance
and reduce falls. Regular practice of Tai Chi
can improve circulation and maintain the flexibility
and strength of joints.
Tai Chi exercise is a part of the 4,000 year-old
system of Traditional Chinese Medicine and is
characterized by a series of slow, gentle, dance-like
movements performed in a relaxed and conscious
manner. Tai Chi synchronizes body movements with
our breathing to foster peace and serenity within..
The purpose of practicing Tai Chi is to tame our
minds and to cultivate the flow of energy (Qi)
throughout the whole body. Tai Chi, in essence,
is really a form of meditation in motion to improve
our overall health.
