Tai Chi

What is Tai Chi?

Originally Tai Chi was a Chinese martial art with four main styles: Yang, Chen, Wu and Sun. A clear focused mind, fitness and body balance are important not only in defense training, but also for good health.

Because Tai Chi is a very gentle form of mind and body exercise, a modified form for the elderly was developed. It improves balance and so helps prevent falls.
