Benefits of Chen Shi Tai Chi for Wellbeing 🌿

Chen Shi Tai Chi is the original form of Tai Chi and offers numerous health benefits that are particularly valuable for Kiwis looking to maintain mobility and strength at any age.

What makes Chen Shi Tai Chi special:

• Combines slow, flowing movements with quick, dynamic actions
• Emphasizes both internal energy cultivation and external physical training
• Improves balance, reducing the risk of falls particularly important for older adults
• Enhances joint mobility while being gentle on the body
• Develops core strength through coordinated movement patterns
• Promotes mindfulness and stress reduction through focused practice

The Level 1 aspects of this class make it accessible for those with mobility challenges, while Level 2 components provide progression for participants with reasonable fitness. You'll learn traditional movements that can be adapted to your individual capabilities.

Chen Shi Tai Chi is renowned for its spiral movements and attention to detail, making it an excellent practice for improving coordination and body awareness. Unlike high-impact exercise, Tai Chi offers a sustainable approach to fitness that can be practiced throughout life.

Join David Chen to discover how this ancient Chinese martial art can be transformed into a modern wellness practice suitable for contemporary Kiwi lifestyles. With regular practice, you may experience improved posture, greater flexibility, and enhanced overall wellbeing.
