Tai Chi:
Tai Chi is recognized for its many health enhancement properties. In fact, according to an article in Arthritis Today Magazine, "Tai Chi is the basis for one of the Arthritis Foundation's exercise programs," and "...may now be an ideal form of exercise for people who have Arthritis." It is the most widely practiced martial art in the world. Regular Tai Chi practice incorporates graceful, flowing movements, flexibility, breathing, meditation and coordination. Mental benefits include relaxation and stress reduction as well as enhancement of concentration. All Tai Chi movements have self defense applications. "Sticky Hands" training is given to promote coordination and sensitivity. Tai Chi is ideal training for all those who want to supplement regular Kung Fu practice and those who want to emphasize good health aspects.
