The ancient Chinese martial art of tai chi involves a slow, meditative series of movements designed to open the body, improve oxygen intake, and help the body restore itself.
Research has suggested that the health benefits of tai chi may include improved muscle strength, flexibility and balance and an easing of joint pain and stress.
