Derived from Chinese martial arts, Tai Chi Quan incorporates many classic elements of Chinese thought, such as the unceasing change of yin and yang. Its movements are gentle and slow, like floating clouds and flowing water. When the counterpart’s strength strikes forward, the change reduces the counterpart’s strength, like striking cotton.
There is a saying in Chinese martial arts, “Internally, spirit and breathing are exercised; externally, bones, muscles and skins are exercised”.
Join us to discover these aspects of Chinese culture for yourself through an introduction to Tai Chi.
