About Tai Chi
Tai Chi exercises your whole body and mind. Practiced diligently, Tai Chi can improve your circulation, flexibility, and balance leading to improved health and sense of greater vitality. Sometimes called a “moving meditation” it is also beneficial for our minds, as we learn and practice new things while moving.
Research from Harvard Medical School supports that Tai Chi exercises may lead to greater muscle strength and flexibility. Additional research shows evidence connecting Tai Chi with increased balance control and lessened chronic pain, particularly for cases of osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, and lower back pain.
