Tai chi is an ancient Chinese tradition that is most often practiced as a graceful and gentle form of exercise. Tai chi has many different styles and there are variations within each style. The practice of Tai Chi consists of a series of movements performed slowly and accompanied by deep breathing. Benefits of tai chi can include: a reduction of stress and anxiety, improved aerobic capacity, increased stamina and energy, improved flexibility, better balance, and improved muscle strength.
Tai chi is sometimes confused with yoga, which is another type of meditative movement. Yoga includes various physical postures, meditation, and deep breathing techniques. You can find Beginner Yoga Courses here.
