Feel the Stress Melt Away
Master San Gee Tam, Golden Flower Tai Chi

For optimum health it is important to work on all areas of our life. The foundation of good health is good nutrition and exercise, and we also need to develop our energy and manage our mind. Tai Chi is the perfect system for health preservation and rejuvenation as it develops your body, transforms your energy, focuses your mind and strengthens your spirit.

Tai Chi is a method of meditation and self-integration through slow, relaxed, conscious movement. You exercise the ability to bring yourself into internal harmony and balance. As a result of Tai Chi practice your body is gently and thoroughly exercised, your emotions are calmed, and your mind is restored to peaceful wholeness.

Tai Chi produces the same benefit as meditation with the added positive effects of exercise. With Tai Chi movement, you direct your body with your mind. You utilize sensitivity and intelligence to obtain results instead of will power and exhaustive effort.

Tai Chi movement is enjoyable. Relaxing into the slow, rhythmical movements provides a pleasant and refreshing interlude to the problems and challenges of the day. Tai Chi revives one's sense of enjoyment and delight of simple activities. Tai chi practice allows you to refine your inner discipline and empowers your productivity. Satisfaction comes from appreciating the value of your own accomplishments. Over time, with regular practice, you will find yourself capable of more than you ever imagined.

Let the effects of stress melt away in the graceful flow of movement.

When you ‘play’ Tai Chi, you are practicing:

Inner and outer harmony,
self-integration and self-reliance,
patience and calmness,
feeling good, well-being,
gentle strength and natural power,
relaxed focus and effective action.

What you practice, you become!
