Intro to T'ai Chi with Ernest Choi

T'ai Chi Ch'uan is a health practice, martial art, and self-cultivative discipline from China.  Employing softness, receptivity and ease, T'ai Chi is an ideal exercise for old and young, fit and not-so-fit.  The postures are linked together in a slow and continuous stream of movement which is designed to restore optimal function to all systems of the body, while forming a foundation for martial application and understanding.
