What Makes Taiji Special

There are four main features of Taiji: it is gentle and relaxing, a non-impact activity suitable for all ages and nearly all conditions of health; it is fluid and uniform in movement - there are no sudden stops and starts as in many sports; it is circular and cyclical, the forms bringing you through a series of smooth movements to finish back where you started; and it is integrated and complete, gently working the whole body, exercising the mind and powers of concentration and breathing techniques, while working on the inner organs at the same time.

It is the most popular type of exercise that uniquely combines breathing, mind, body movements and consciousness all together. Without these qualities, it is just like any other exercise. The training methods will generate large amounts of natural Qi energy without external manipulation, i.e., acupuncture or traditional Chinese herbs. Therefore, it compliments acupuncture and herbs, and sustains and maintains health for the long term. After Taiji has helped improve health, it could lead to fighting fit health if you are dedicated enough.
