We visited the tai chi center for the first time today. It was really cool to see that this form of exercise was given a high regard. From studies I did on qi gong I know that the benefits can be tremendous if someone practices this exercise everyday. I am glad to see more people in the U.S. Practicing tai chi, which is a branch off of qi gong. Hopefully this practice increases the amount of students attending. This exercise can help improve the overall health and well being of the individuals practicing it. It was quite exciting to see the students who had been practicing this all their lives.
