Tai Chi
Derived from the martial arts, Tai
Chi is composed of slow, deliber-
ate movements, meditation, and
deep breathing, which enhance
physical health and emotional
well-being. Tai Chi improves
overall fitness, coordination, and
agility. People who practice Tai
Chi on a regular basis tend to
have good posture, flexibility,
and range of motion, are more
mentally alert, and sleep more
soundly.
