Taijiquan  
Taijiquan Taijiquan  is a Chinese Martial Art that uses "Internal" Principles to develop ones skill rather than focusing on "external" speed and strength.  After years of experience in Martial Arts, I settled on the art of Taijiquan (Tai Chi). The word "Taijiquan" is roughly translated as "supreme ultimate fist" and draws its roots and principles from Taoism. It is more than a martial art. The ancient sages designed Taijiquan to be rejuvenating for the health and spirit.

Taijiquan is inseparable from Taoism and I have learned many things about it by studying Taoism and vice versa. The origins of Taijiquan are clouded in legend, but all the stories follow similar lines.
