Discover Tai Chi

Tai Chi, also known as Tai Chi Chuan, is a mind-body exercise that combines movements, meditation, and deep breathing. Tai chi is an ancient Chinese martial art.

Initially developed for combat and self-defense, it has evolved into a sport and form of exercise. Tai chi is a gentle, low-impact form of exercise in which practitioners perform a series of deliberate, flowing motions while focusing on deep relaxation while keeping body structure with slow relaxed breathing. Breath, movement, and awareness work together in Tai Chi. Often referred to as “meditation in motion,” Tai Chi aims to concentrate and balance the body’s qi (vital energy), providing many benefits to mental and physical health.

Some standard principles of my Tai Chi include:

  • Rooting into the ground then using the mind to initiate the movement
  • Full body connection, no movement is "empty" or independent of the body, waist with connection to the earth.
  • Sinking the Qi, or relaxed "fullness" within each movement while maintaining structure and utilising "yielding"
  • Synchronizing of all body movements. Finding the connection and finding the 10,000 movements in a single movement.
  • Maintaining a continuous flow as all of the movements become one- continuous movement with no beginning and no end.

Centered, yielding Smoothly flowing at the pace of nature Circles and spirals of never-ending movement. No beginning, no end Awareness is born within breath.
