Dear Ms. Mary Ma,
I am back from China now and would like to take a moment out of my busy schedule to let you know that your company and your guide Rogin Lee are fantastic. Rogine made my tour of China, his depth of knowledge is incredible and his presentations and introductions were indepth and interesting. Rogin presented China's past and present in a new light. This China tour with Rogin surpassed what I was expecting from any China tour company. I would like to extend my thanks to yourself, Rogin Lee and Mr. Wong, the driver.
Sincerely,
Lee A. Gravesen

Chinese Taiji Quan
Health Benefits – Chinese Folklore
Taiji is often promoted as a low-impact form of geriatric exercise. Outdoor practice is the most common in China, as opposed to he Western concept of exercise in a gym.
The studies show some reduced pain, stress and anxiety in healthy subjects. Other studies also indicated improved cardiovascular and respiratory function in healthy subjects as well as those who had undergone coronary artery bypass surgery.
Paints that suffer from heart failure, high blood pressure, heart attacks, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s may also benefit from taiji.
Now that the majority of health studies have displayed a tangible benefit to the practice of taiji, some health professionals have called for more in-depth studies to determine mitigating factors, recommended duration of practice to show the best results, and whether taiji is equally effective as other forms of exercise.
Modern Taiji – Chinese Folklore
Taiji has become very popular in the last twenty years or so: many hospitals , clinics, community and senior centers host classes in communities around the world. As a result of this popularity, there has been some divergence between the flowers.
Some say they practice taiji primarily for self-defense, those who practices it for its aesthetic appeal, and those who are more interested in its benefits to physical and mental health. The wushu aspect of Taiji Chi is primarily for show; the forms taught for this purpose are designed to earn points in competition and are mostly unconcerned with either health maintenance or martial ability.
More traditional masters still see the two aspects of health and martial arts as equally necessary. The taiji “family” schools therefore still present their teachings in a martial art context whatever the intention of their students in studying the art. Along with yoga, it is one of the fastest growing health maintenance activities, including from the increasing number of students enrolling in classes in the first place.
Overview of Taiji Quan – Chinese Folklore
Paradoxically, while the image of taili in popular culture is typified by exceedingly slow movement, many taiji styles have secondary forms of a faster pace. The other characteristic of traditional taiji training are partner exercises known “hands pushing”.
Taiji was a form of traditional martial arts of the Neijia “soft or internal” branch. Since the first widespread promotion of taiji’s health benefits by Yang Chengfu in the early Twentieth century, it has developed a worldwide following among people with little or no interest in martial training for its benefit to health.
Some call it a form of moving meditation, as focusing the mind solely on the movements of the form purportedly helps to bring about a state of mental calmness and clarity. Besides general health benefits and relieving attributed to taiji training, aspects of traditional Chinese medicine are taught to advanced taiji students in some traditional schools. Taiji schools do no generally requie a uniform, but both traditional and modern teachers often advocate loose, comfortable clothing and flatsoled shoes.
