The Exposure of Tai Chi

Hello internet users, I would like to share with you about a history of Tai Chi. 

First of all, Tai Chi, also known as Shadow Boxing, is one of the major branches of the traditional Chinese martial arts. Its name is derived from the philosophical term, "Tai Chi," the first known written reference of which appeared in the Book of Changes over 3000 years ago during the Zhou Dynasty (1100-1221 BC). In this book, it says that "in all changes exists Tai Chi, which causes the two opposites in everything." Tai Chi means the ultimate of ultimate, often used to describe the vastness of the universe.


Secondly, the essential principles of Tai Chi are based on the ancient Chinese philosophy of Taoism, which stresses the natural balance in all things and the need for living in spiritual and physical accord with the patterns of nature. According to this philosophy, everything is composed of two opposite, but entirely complementary, elements of yin and yang, working in a relationship which is in perpetual balance. Tai Chi consists of exercises equally balanced between yin and yang, which is why it is so remarkably effective.



Last but not least, Tai Chi origins date back over 700 years or up to 1500 years, well that's what people said. Tai Chi is a type of Qigong that practiced by millions of civilization of people worldwide every day. Qigong in Chinese means energy or breath skill, also Tai Chi was accredited to a Taoist Monk named Zhang San Feng as its creator.
