Tai Chi 42 Forms Part 2 – Teach Tai Chi: An Exercise in Anti-aging Tai chi, the choreographed meditative exercises that have been a healing art in China for thousands of years, is practiced by over 100 million people worldwide and owes its popularity to a simple fact – it’s enjoyable and it makes you stronger. Recent studies confirm that when practiced regularly – 30 minutes, three times a week – it has numerous health benefits including: increased energy, decreased stress, an immunity boost against viruses, lowered blood pressure, better cognitive functioning, increased joint mobility, an improved cholesterol profile, relief from fibromyalgia symptoms, and even a better night’s sleep. It also increases leg muscle strength and provides better balance and posture. Perhaps the best part is that tai chi is a gentle exercise that can be performed by anyone at any age.

Poetic Qigong. Autumn… the season for reflection on the cycles of nature and the contraction that comes after expansion. As we slow down our rhythm, we are grateful for the treasures of wisdom and strength that we gathered in summer; we now welcome the heavy grey clouds and the chilly winds that mark the debut of the rainy season, so that we can appreciate even more the warm rays of sunshine when they pierce through. Qigong (Chi Kung) can be defined as “life force cultivation” or energy technique. Shibashi (translated: 18 Forms) is a modern qigong based on elements of Yang style Tai Chi. It was created in 1982 by medical experts from the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Shanghai. If you are looking for a daily routine to perform for health and relaxation, that’s it! This form is performed by millions of people throughout Australasia and is considered the national health exercise in several countries of the region. This is a full form presentation, easy to follow through by beginners. Performed by Dan Stefan.
