Philosophy of Tai Chi Chuan


Philosophy of Tai Chi Chuan






The Tai Chi Chuan Ching (Cannon) 
Tai Chi (the Supreme Ultimate), 
It was born from Wu Chi (No Ultimate).
 It produces both movement and stillness,
 It is the mother of Yin and Yang


Tai Chi Chuan is a Chinese form of exercise derived from Taoism, one of China's oldest belief systems. The practice of Tai Chi Chuan is beneficial to health and it is also a subtle, sophisticated and scientific method of self-defence. Since this system of exercise is suitable for people of all ages and requires little or no special equipment, it has gained an enthusiastic reception all over the world.
Tai Chi Chuan evolved to help people improve their physical health, equip them to defend themselves against wild beasts and bandits, and also improve their powers of meditation. In other words, Tai Chi Chuan enables people to survive through fitness and self-defence.
