"From the first moment I discovered Taijiquan (Tai Chi Chuan) I knew I had come upon a movement discipline that I would explore well in to my old age. After working with Taiji for several years, my comprehension of the genius of Taiji started to blossom. Here was a physical manifestation of spiritual law. Taiji is one of the truly great human achievements."

The term Taiji (T’ai Chi) is most often translated as "The Grand Ultimate.” A comparison can be made to "The Big Bang,” the first moment of separation, when all that is was first created. Everything follows Taiji.

Roughly, Quan means, “fist.” It is a general term used to connote any of a number of Chinese martial arts. So Taijiquan translates into the “Grand Ultimate Martial Art.”

In terms of its practice Taiji brings with it tremendous benefits. Each day brings exciting revelations about who we are. With each new nugget comes increased faith that more jewels will turn up. And what’s best, there are no restrictions to joining the treasure hunt. Everyone can do it! No limits.
