As an exercise, Tai Chi builds the mind/body connection with a focus on relaxation, balance, joint health, correct alignment, and smart body mechanics through slow, flowing movements and coordinated breathing.
As a meditation, Tai Chi focuses on fully experiencing and influencing the body's energy flow through movement or stillness. This energy work is called qigong.
As a martial art, the Tai Chi artist stays in contact with the opponent, turning into his or her movements to disrupt attacks with an elegant economy of motion.
As a life philosophy, Tai Chi is rooted in Taoism and the concept of yin/yang. The goal is to live in harmony with nature, to function optimally as a human being--emotionally and psychologically, to be aware of natural energy, and to utilize that energy to reach a high level of physical and spiritual well-being.
