Tai
chi is typically practiced today as a system of fluid, low
-
impact movements
for the benefit of health and wellness. Tai chi can be viewed as a form of active
meditation (or “meditation in motion”), whereby the mind/body connection is
developed and used to c
oordinate movements through mental awareness. This
type of practice, in turn, has been associated with a variety of benefits, including
relief of stress, better balance, and improvement in concentration,
coordination, and circulation. In this class, we wil
l focus on the Wu style of tai
chi, a traditional form of tai chi going back five generations, characterized by
smaller, more compact movements than other styles. (Contact: Eric Kolaczyk, kolaczyk@bu.edu)
