Suffering from arthritis, depressing,back problem,obesity?. Recovering form an injury or simply stiff from ageing and haven’t touch your toes in ages ?. Tai  Chi, an ancient martial art,reputedly created by a Taoist monk,could be the answer!

Claims

Tai chi is a slow and deliberate set of flowing movements that provide moderate aerobic and low-impact exercise.It’s great for those who dislike traditional exercise.The benefits include sleeping better,having a healthier immune and circulatory system,stress control,increased mobility and gentle toning of your muscle and joints.

The Good

It’s an excellent gentle exercise and works out your body and soul.Many breast cancer survivors find it a great way to boost their lymphatic system. Bad back? It’s fantastic for mobilising and strengthening the spine

The Bad

For the first four months you’ll be focused on learning the sequence of 108 movements,so it’s a long term health investment rather than an instant fix.

Essentials

Wear flat-soled shoes and loose,comfortable clothing such as track pants.You can contact your local health club for tai chi association and for more information. RD Health
