Overview

The Essence of Taiji Qigong is for beginners who have learned the basic Taiji form and want to reach new levels of skill and ability. Qigong prepares the body and mind for great Taiji practice by loosening the joints, warming the muscles, relaxing the breath and stimulating concentration and focus. Qigong is also the key to developing the phenomenal martial power of Taijiquan, a fact that many Taiji books ignore. In addition, regular Qigong practice accelerates the health benefits of Taiji by reducing stress, bolstering the immune system, and strengthening the physical and energy bodies. This authoritative guide helps beginning students explore deeper levels of Taijiquan practice, and is usable by every Taijiquan style.
