Only a century ago, the average life expectancy was 42 years. Today people live two times longer. This is due not only to advances in medicine and technology but, more importantly, to proper nutrition and lifestyle adjustments. The book The Five Secrets to longevity by Drs Michael Lam and Maria Sulindrs discusses the five pillars of anti-aging:
Optimal Anti-Aging Supplementation
Natural Hormone Enhancement
Anti-Aging Specific Exercises
Anti-Aging Nutrition
Stress Reduction
Aging is not a disease, it is 70% related to lifestyle and only 30 % related to genetics. Tai Chi Solution’s aim is to create a gracefully aging society using discoveries China has known for thousands years while encouraging practitioners to pursue self-healing in daily life. This includes specific Tai Chi and Qi Gong exercises to protect and strengthen the internal organs, regulating and nourishing the spirit, maintaining an optimistic attitude, adjusting the diet, supplementing and keeping a balanced life between work and rest.
Qi Gong is a unique Qi (intrinsic energy) cultivation through the proper posture, breathing and meditative technique. As an art of healing and health preservation it has a long history and a profound cultural background and plays a critical role in preventing diseases and cultivating longevity.
In the context of Chinese Traditional Medicine, Essence, Qi and Spirit are the basic elements of all physiologic activity. Qi (life energy) appears in various forms in the body. The basic form is “original Qi” which is made up of the prenatal Qi; nutrients of food and the air drawn in through the lung. Qi vitalizes the body and flows along a network of channels in the body, known as meridians. Although these channels are not visible, they can be measured electrically.
There are 12 major meridians, most of which correspond to an organ in the body. When a person is healthy, an abundant supply of Qi flows through all the meridians in the right direction. If the flow becomes blocked or unruly, disease will follow. Qi Gong exercise has been approved as an active way to help removing such blockage so good health can return.
Tai Chi Quan is “supreme ultimate martial art” originated from China and now widely practiced all over the world, mainly for the purpose of improving health.

This logo is a combination of three major elements: the Tai Chi symbol, which is unity of Yin and Yang; the Dragon; and Lucky clouds. The circular shape of a golden coin reminds us of one’s fortune to have good health, and to accumulate it throughout your life.
The Chinese believe that everything in the universe is made up of two polar energies:
Yin and Yang. The Yin energy is character is a profoundly restful, and subdued energy whereas the Yang energy is characterized as a more outgoing and extroverted energy. The Tai Chi symbol represents a perfect balance of Yin and Yang, the same type of balance needed for a healthy and happy life. The same balance that needs to be brought into all relationships: work, family, friendship, and society.
The Dragon is the most popular and mysterious creature in Chinese culture because it has the power to dive into the waters, fly to the sky and increase abundance and longevity. The Dragon’s spine in the logo, reminding us of the constant flow of life and our need to adapt to it with the same endless flexibility of a dragon. Continued success, high achievement, and prosperity are also listed among the Dragon’s arsenal of good qualities.
The clouds are regarded by ancient Chinese as a symbol of good luck and abundance as well as a creation of heaven, reminding us to be the creators of our own life.
