Benefits of Tai Chi for Kiwis of All Ages 🌿

Tai Chi (Taijiquan) is an ancient Chinese martial art that has evolved into a gentle form of exercise perfect for New Zealanders looking to improve their health without high-impact movements. This traditional practice combines slow, deliberate movements with mindful breathing and meditation.
