Tai Chi

Ari demonstrating in Jerusalem

Tai Chi Chuan is the art of concealing hardness within softness like needle in cotton. The secret of Tai Chi lies therefore in the subtle inner form.

In traditional practice, students began learning the basic stances. The core principle was the IDEA : Directing the body with clear intention and infusing the movements with Chi-breath.

This approach establishes a fundamental base, common to all martial arts, before delving into the specialized techniques of individual schools.

With a deepening grasp of the fundamentals, the full form is gradually introduced, and the more subtle aspects of Tai Chi are explored.
