Tai Chi Benefits

Tai chi and Qigong can be a great workout for the body and the mind, improving well-being and physical health. A resistance exercise that burns 120 to 180 calories every half hour, tai chi can improve your balance, muscle strength, and flexibility. It also reduces falls and is especially beneficial for anyone with joint stiffness or impaired function due to conditions like arthritis, spondylitis, scleroderma, or fibromyalgia. A great stress buster, tai chi can help you sleep better and feel less anxious or depressed.

Unlike so many exercises, Tai Chi isn’t a new fad that will disappear just as quickly as it arrived. It has existed and been practiced in China for over a thousand years.

I hope you will watch the following video on the amazing benefits of Tai Chi and Qigong by TCM Dr Roger Jahnke, and read more about the benefits below, just scroll through.

My class offerings are all at the Booking Page.

Any Age

Tai Chi is a gentle art. So much so that people of almost any age or physical condition can undertake it.

Balance & Strength
Tai Chi has proven to be an exercise with significant benefits in the areas of balance, upper- and lower-body muscular strength and endurance, and upper- and lower-body flexibility, particularly in older adults. In one such study, people in their 60s and 70s practiced Tai Chi three times a week for 12 weeks. They also undertook a myriad of physical fitness tests to measure balance, muscular strength, endurance, and flexibility before and after the 12 weeks. After just six weeks, statistically significant improvements were observed in balance, muscular strength, endurance, and flexibility measures. Improvements in each of these areas increased further after 12 weeks.
