A Tai Chi class offered by Confucius Institute started on September 27.

The Instructor, Dr. Xiaoqin Wu Turner, an adjunct faculty at Sociology Department of NCSU, has been exercising and teaching Tai Chi for many years.

Tai Chi is an ancient Chinese health exercise.  It is a sequence of gestures and movements that are gentle and fluid yet have profound power.  It is a form of energy cultivation and an internal martial art.  The class will focus on the techniques of relaxation, breath control, and balance.  Tai Chi practice has been known to have tremendous health benefits such as improved sleep quality; reduced tension,  blood pressure, and arthritis pain.
