Thai Chi Chuan is an ancient Chinese system of slow, relaxed, meditative movements, suitable for all ages, which develop sensitivity, promote health, teach relaxation and the foundations of self defense, and cultivate internal power.
While Tai Chi Chuan is practiced in many countries & by most people primarily as a health exercise, it is also a martial art. The Tai Chi Chuan solo form is a sequence of movements requiring 10 to 20 minutes to perform. Through practice of this form, the student learns relaxation, balance, coordination, control, correct breathing and good posture while also building a repertoire of self-defense movements.
