​​​​Taichi 

太极(Taichi)

Taichi is one of the traditional martial arts forms and requires a certain skill and attention. While concentrating on correct posture and breathing control, the movements are fluid, graceful, and well-balanced. These movements promote harmony between mind and body, In our modern stress-filled lives.​​ this mental relaxation and strengthening of the body are invaluable.​​

No matter one's age, gender, physical strength, or weight, taichi is beneficial to us all. When practicing it quietly and slowly, you can sense the presence of the air as one moves through it. At the same time, one can also feel the rhythm of the practice's ​progression.
​​​
