TAI CHI
WHAT IS TAI CHI CHUAN?
Tai Chi Chuan is a group of traditional Chinese martial arts whose movements and applications embody the interactions between Yin and Yang as described in Taoist philosophy.
There are several traditional styles of Tai Chi, most of which stem from the Chen family style, which was founded during the 1600’s (after the fall of the Ming Dynasty) by Chen Wangting.
Today, Tai Chi is practiced for its health benefits. Practice involves slow deliberate movements, with a strong focus on body posture and alignment.
TAI CHI CHUAN YANG STYLE
The Yang Style hand form (sequence of movements preformed as part of practice) is known for it’s slow, even pace. Big, gentle, graceful movements with large, open postures make it accessible to a wide variety of age groups and physical conditions.
