Tai Chi is a wonderful exercise for both old and young. Grand Master WU Tunan made himself a subject of his Tai Chi research when he was teaching in a college. At his 100th birthday celebration, he announced the success of his project.
My purpose of practicing Tai Chi is to ensure my quality of life at an older age. Tai Chi helps to improve circulation, energy level, range of motion, balance, as well as overall well being.
During my practice I noticed that it is good both for adults and for children. Especially in the areas of focusing and attention span.
My favorite exercise is Hand-in-Hand Tai Chi with seniors and handicapped. I enjoy their smiles, their sense of good feeling, and their simple words "thank you".
