Tai Chi

Tai Chi is a holistic practice improving body, mind and spirit and is an essential element of Chinese Traditional Medicine. Health bodies worldwide, including Health and Social Care in Guernsey and the UK National Health Service have acknowledged its health benefits. The physical movements employed in Qi Gong and Tai Chi are gentle and are practised slowly so can be undertaken by all age groups - from twenties to nineties.
