WHAT IS TAI CHI

Internal Chinese marital art practiced for both its defense training and its health benefits.

Though originally conceived as a martial art, it is also typically practiced for a variety of other personal reasons:
competitive wrestling in the format of pushing hands (tui shou), demonstration competition/performance,

and achieving greater longevity. As a result, a multiple of training forms exist,

bothtraditional and modern, which correspond to those aims with differing emphasis.

Tai Chi Quan is usually known for being practiced with relatively slow movements.

CHEN STYLE

TAI CHI

Chen family Tai Chi Quan is the mother form of Tai Chi Quan

from which other various styles such as Yang, Wu, and Sun ultimately derive.
The T
ai Chi Quan creator, Chen Wang Ting, was the 9th generation representative of the Chen family about 400 years ago ( in the late Ming dynasty).

He created Tai Chi Quan based upon the Yin and Yang theory form the Yijing

(the book of changes), breathing of Qi (Chi) inducing practice, 29 posture of the military tactic book by General Qi Ji Guang, and the theory of meridians in Chinese traditional medicine.
