A community portal about Tai Chi Chuan with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Tai Chi Chuan, T'ai Chi Ch'üan or Taijiquan, commonly known as Tai Chi, T'ai Chi, or Taiji, is an internal Chinese martial art. There are different styles of T'ai Chi Ch'üan, although most agree they are all based on the system originally taught by the Chen family to the Yang family starting in 1820. It is often promoted and practiced as a martial arts therapy for the purposes of health and longevity, sometimes even to the point of being taught exclusively as an exercise technique ignoring martial applications entirely. T'ai Chi Ch'üan is considered a soft style martial art, an art applied with deep relaxation or "softness" in the musculature as possible, to distinguish its theory and application from that of the hard martial art styles which use a degree of tension in the muscles.
