Tai Chi is an internal martial arts form famous for its health benefits, many people practice just for the healing side, as the harmony and calmness promote balance of body and mind. We all need time to "switch off" and relax.Tai Chi does this as the practicioner goes through the movements or concentrates on the breathing techniques during the Chi Gong (breathing exercises).It is sometimes also refered to as 'moving meditation' because whilst performing the movement you are also aware of the breathing aspects and the movement at the same time.

The term 'Gung Fu', or 'Kung Fu' Kung means energy, and fu mean time. Kung Fu (or Gung Fu, in Cantonese) can be interpreted to mean 'Hard Work', 'task' or 'always learning'.So this phrase can also be applied to other skills such as music, and art. The more common terms in China are 'Wu Shu' meaning Martial Art.There are over 200 different styles of Kung Fu in China and although it would be great to learn them all is impractical, so we teach the most popular styles.
