Here, they gain insights into the circulation of qi (or “chi”)—the life force and energy—through the body’s meridians and explore the martial applications of the form movements. Moreover, students have the opportunity to engage with the broader Tai Chi and martial arts community through participation in events such as World Tai Chi Day and the Wong People Kung Fu Tournament.

Acupuncture is a form of alternative medicine and a key component of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It is a technique in which thin needles are inserted into the body and in some cases, electro-stimulation is applied to gently stimulate particular regions of the body. Acupuncture is also used to maintain general health and well-being. Acupuncturists treat a variety of physical and psychological issues, such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, pain, digestive disorders, and infertility.
