Tai Chi has an almost magical effect in health improvements. Kids love to learn and they learn very fast especially when engaged in a fun activity. This specially designed tai chi program emphasizes the fun element while developing their mind and body. It is designed in small building blocks to capture their attention, incorporating imagery and games to add appeal to kids.
We have found that kids really enjoy learning it. Teachers and parents have also found improvement in their children's sport and academic studies after doing Tai Chi.
An introductory section for teachers and parents provides information on Tai Chi and how to teach the program. Starting with a fun gathering in the park, Dr. Lam and Cheryl teach the program including warming up and cooling down exercises. To conclude, Dr. Lam demonstrates the entire set from the front on and back on positions.
