Tai Chi refers to a philosophy of the forces of yin and yang and appears in both Taoist and Confucian Chinese philosophy, where it represents the fusion or mother of yin and yang into a single ultimate.

Tai Chi involves five elements, taolu (solo hand and weapons routines/forms), neigong and qigong (breathing, movement and awareness exercises and meditation), tuishou (response drills) and sanshou (self defence techniques).

When extreme yang encounters extreme yin, the yang will always be defeated. The soft and pliable will defeat the hard and strong.

Tai Chi teaches not to directly fight or resist an incoming force (yang with yang), but to meet it in softness and stick to it, following its motion until the incoming force of attack exhausts itself or can be safely redirected, the result of meeting yang with yin.

Achieving this yin/yang or yang/yin balance  is a primary goal of Tai Chi practice. Tai Chi offers mental and physical relaxation and allows tensions to flow away when they appear.

Stagnations in the energy system caused by stress and a false body line will be effectively removed. Nobody wins or loses, everyone learns.

Be open to more knowledge and life wisdom to receive, live a life in balance and harmony.
