What is Tai Chi

What is Tai Chi?

Tai Chi is a Martial Art originating in China. Tai Chi is considered one of the "Internal" Martial Arts. According to T.Y. Pang: Tai Chi practice is not mere drilling, rather Tai Chi practice is a continuous, attentive process of learning, feeling, and being. There is no idea or image to be matched. One lets go of all thoughts in the mind, moving and feeling without any preconceived images or ideas.
