Tai Chi (Tai Chi Quan) and Qi Gong (Chi Kung) have a very long history in Chinese tradition and culture. Tai Chi and Qi Gong utilise the body’s Energy System for body, mind and spiritual development.

Tai Chi exercise is derived from martial arts with a history of over six hundred years. The essence of Tai Chi can be seen in the Ying & Yang symbol which is practiced through the external physical movements and the “floating” internal energy (Chi).

Wu Style Tai Chi is one of the most popular of the traditional forms of Tai Chi. The founder of the Wu Style Tai Chi is the Great Master Wu Jian Quan (1870-1942). This style of Tai Chi can be learned easily by many people, and has been widely accepted as the standard style.
