Tai Chi was launched in the United States in the late 1960s. Initially people didn't understand the results of slow motion, but now this is a popular exercise that can even be seen in TV commercials. But what is the sport we call Tai Chi? What can it do for you?

On the basis of Tai Chi, we have a series of slow-connected movements based on martial arts techniques. Today, the focus is on the health aspects of sports. No emphasis on military skills. Tai Chi movement is collectively referred to as "form", much like the Japanese karate "kata". Forms or kata are essentially "sports dictionaries" for self-defense techniques. They provide martial arts students with a way to remember and practice the different skills they have learned.

Because the practice is not stressful, it is common for students to start from middle age and continue to adapt to their 80s and 90s.

Another reason for its popularity is that no special clothing or equipment is needed. A person can practice Tai Chi in a business dress as easily as wearing a beachwear. The ground in which it is practiced may be smooth, rough, uneven, wet or dry, and requires minimal space to implement the form. But the most convincing reason to practice Tai Chi is that you feel better every time you practice, and the effect is cumulative - usually a person gets better with age.
