Concentrating on correct posture and breathing control, Tai Chi's movements are fluid, graceful and well balanced, promoting the complete harmony of body and mind. Tai Chi provides the mental relaxation and physical fitness so essential in our modern stress-filled lives.
Tai Chi is an unusual form of martial arts whereby we believe in building strength - mental and physical from within, softness is stronger than hardness, moving in a curve is better than a straight line, yielding is more efficient than confronting. It is especially different from western types of sports such as rugby where the harder and quicker the better. Tai Chi is a sport that strengthens the body as well as the mind from within.
On Wednesday, May 9th, 2012, we learned how to play Tai Chi from some teachers of Tai Chi school.
First, there was one teacher told us the history about Tai Chi.
And later, all the teachers showed Tai Chi to us.
And then, some teachers showed the different Tai Chi by different weapons.
Foreign students studying in the Tai Chi School also have a show.
The power of the Waist in Tai Chi is very important; we can not push the teacher away so easily.
At the end, we started learning how to play Tai Chi. It was so amazing!
