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.
