Tai Chi Chuan is a Chinese martial art with a long history that dates back to ancient China, with some attributing its origin to Zhang Sanfeng, while others credit Chen Wangting. Despite being perceived by many in modern times as merely a health exercise, Tai Chi Chuan’s health benefits can only be fully realized by those who practice it properly in the context of combat. This is because Tai Chi Chuan’s “softness” requires rigorous drilling for flexible sinews, tendons, and ligaments, which can cause some discomfort, like other forms of exercise.
