Getting Fit the Cardio Tai-Chi Way
Today, we are searching for new methods of holistic healing. We
are not content with exercising our body only, but desire to
cultivate our mind and spirit as well. With this in mind,
Dr. Weng has developed Cardio Tai-Chi, a combination of ancient
Tai-chi techniques with modern Cardiovascular fitness methods is
a great discipline for maintaining health and cultivating the
mind and spirit. Originating from concepts taught in his
accredited course at the National College of Physical Eduacation
and Sports in Taiwan, entitled Cardio Tai-Chi, the "Tai-Chi Bird"
routine is an invaluable tool for beginners and advanced students
alike. With the understanding of the purpose of each Tai-chi
technique and keeping in mind a simple story that weaves the
movements together, you can create a holistic work-out as intense
as you like.
The exercises of Cardio Tai-Chi are taught within the frame of a short story. Like that of the "Tai-Chi Monkey", this story functions as a memorization aid for students.
The exercises taught in the Cardio Tai-Chi program are also ideal for anyone wishing to take their tai-chi skills into the ring. Watch for upcoming articles on the self-defense aspects of Cardio Tai-Chi and how you can utilize these exercises in a competition setting.
