Tai Chi Essentials: Your Top Questions Answered
New to Tai Chi and Wuji? Start here with answers to the most common questions we receive.
What is Tai Chi?
Tai Chi (or Taiji) is an ancient Chinese internal martial art that is now practiced worldwide for its profound health and wellness benefits. It's often called "meditation in motion" because it combines slow, flowing movements with deep breathing and mental focus. Unlike external exercises that focus on strength, Tai Chi cultivates internal energy (Qi), improves balance, and reduces stress.
What does "Wuji" mean?
Wuji (無極) is a fundamental concept in Chinese philosophy, representing the state of undifferentiated oneness and infinite potential before the emergence of duality (like Yin and Yang). It's the primordial stillness. In Tai Chi practice, Wuji is the foundational standing posture—a state of calm, centered readiness from which all movement begins. Our name, Taichi Wuji, reflects the entire journey from this inner stillness to harmonious movement.
Is Tai Chi a good workout?
Absolutely. While it's low-impact and gentle on the joints, Tai Chi is a highly effective mind-body workout. It builds functional strength, especially in the legs and core, significantly improves flexibility and balance, and enhances cardiovascular health. The mental focus required also makes it a unique form of cognitive training.
Is Tai Chi only for older adults?
Not at all! While it's excellent for seniors, Tai Chi benefits people of all ages. Athletes use it for recovery and mind-body coordination, office workers use it to combat stress and sedentary habits, and young people enjoy it as a moving meditation. It's for anyone seeking a holistic practice for body and mind.
What's the difference between Tai Chi and Qi Gong?
They are sister arts with the same philosophical roots. Think of Qi Gong as "energy work" – it often consists of simpler, repetitive exercises focused specifically on cultivating health and vitality. Tai Chi is a more complex "movement system" that sequences these energy principles into longer, continuous forms (routines) that also contain martial applications. Many people practice both.
How do I start learning Tai Chi?
The best way to start is to begin! You can explore our free [Beginner's Guide] right here on this website. We recommend starting with basic principles like posture and breathing before learning movements. You can learn from online resources (like our video library) or find a qualified instructor in your area for personalized feedback.
Do I need any special equipment?
No. One of the beauties of Tai Chi is its simplicity. All you need is comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely and a flat, quiet space large enough to take a step in any direction. You don't even need shoes—practicing barefoot or in socks can help you feel more connected to the ground.

How often should I practice?
Consistency is more important than duration. Practicing for 15-20 minutes, 3-4 times a week, will yield better results than a single long session once a week. Even a daily 5-minute practice of standing (Wuji) or a single movement can create a positive habit and noticeable benefits.
Can Tai Chi help with stress?
Yes, it is one of the most effective practices for stress relief. The combination of slow, deliberate movement, deep diaphragmatic breathing, and mindful attention acts as a "reset button" for the nervous system. It shifts the body out of the "fight-or-flight" stress mode and into the "rest-and-digest" state, promoting deep calm and mental clarity.
