Tai Chi Philosophy
The origins of Tai Chi go back over 5000 years and are based on Taoist philosophy. The main concept of Taoist philosophy is that the universe is going to change and we should not fight with it, but work with it. Action should always be effortless and come from creativity without mental or physical effort.
Taoism is about working within the laws of change and not opposing them, opposing change is seen as a waste of energy. Taoist philosophy states change is constant but, by understanding change and acting in accordance with the laws that govern it, we can work effortlessly to achieve our aims. Tai chi is about union of mind and body which makes movements into effortless interaction.
