Tai Chi in a nutshell

Hi,

Tai Chi is an internal Chinese martial art practiced with the aim of promoting health and longevity.

Tai Chi training forms are well known as the slow motion routines that groups of people practice together every morning in parks around the world, particularly in China.

Some medical studies support its effectiveness as an alternative exercise and a form of martial arts therapy.

Tai Chi is considered a soft style martial art - an art applied with internal power - to distinguish its theory and application from that of the hard martial art styles.

The ability to use Tai Chi to defend yourself in combat is the most effective proof of a student's understanding of the principles of good Tai Chi. The study of Tai Chi martially is the study of appropriate change in response to outside forces; the study of yielding and blending with outside force rather than attempting to meet it with opposing force.
