Taiji

Taichi is a unique internal martial arts form that consists of health enhancing exercise while expressing an appreciation of artistry. Taichi is popular worldwide because of the benefits it brings to one's well-being. Originally conceived as a martial art, it is also typically practiced for a variety of other personal reasons: competitive wrestling in the format of Pushing Hands and demonstration competitions. As a result, a multitude of training forms exist, both traditional and modern, which correspond to those aims with differing emphasis.
Some training forms of taichi are especially known for being practiced with relatively slow movements.
It is purported that focusing the mind solely on the movements of the form helps to bring about a state of mental calm and clarity.
Since the first widespread promotion of taichi’s health benefits in the early 20th century, it has developed a worldwide following among people with little or no interest in martial training, for its benefit to health.
