Yang Style Taiji And Qigong
For Health And Self-Defense
Taiji is a wonderfully powerful health art as well as a most
potent self-defense art. In fact, it could be the most
effective martial art ever invented. This ancient Chinese art
is based on natural movement. It is about the flow of energy
in the body and, eventually, the transfer of energy between
people. Taiji does not rely on muscle strength to generate
great power. It's no wonder that more and more people
worldwide are discovering Taiji and practicing this ancient
Chinese art everyday.
So, who does Taiji, can you do it and what would you hope
to gain from the practice? The answer is anyone who wants
to reduce stress in their life, be more healthy, research the
mind/body connection and learn how to generate tremendous
martial power for self-defense can do Taiji.
