the Taoist symbol the West calls yin (black) and yang (white). This Tai Chi
symbol represents two balanced opposites: black and white, sky and earth, fire
and water, masculine and feminine, moon and sun. Feminine is the black or yin.

Chi is not taught. The healing benefits without the martial application is the
yin without the yang. Through the movements of Tai Chi, one can set the mind and

Tai Chi training, you can learn more about yourself and you can feel calm and
peaceful all the time. It is a kind of martial art, but it is a gentle martial
art. It is not for attacking, but has powerful self-defense applications.
