Why Tai Chi?

The practice of Tai Chi (Taiji) and Qigong has been clinically proven to provide significant health benefits for both the body and mind. Tai Chi has been dubbed "Meditation in Motion" by Harvard Medical School and other leading medical research institutions, and is also referred to as "Medication in Motion". The benefits of Tai Chi and Qigong can be illustrated in a simple diagram.

​

Violet Li is an experienced teacher of these healing arts, having taught them to over 10,000 people worldwide, ranging from 6-year-olds to 106-year-olds and all demographics in between. Her expertise includes a wide range of Tai Chi and Qigong forms, and she has developed specialized training programs for individuals or groups with compromised health conditions.
