Fibonacci numbers and symmetry in Tai-chi motions

Tai-Chi (or also called Taijiquan) is a form of mind-body "soft style" martial arts originated from China. Sometimes referred to as "meditation in motion". It is a dynamical process of balancing Yin and Yang driven from intention, through breathing energy, to body movements. Every movement of Tai-Chi is driven by Tao’s thoughts. Tai-Chi has been practiced worldwide for a variety of reasons, most commonly for its health benefits. Tai Chi promotes serenity and clarity and brings about calmness of mind and balance of life. It is also known to reduce anxiety and depression. Recent scientific studies have also suggested that Tai-Chi offers numerous health benefits; improved sleep quality, lowered blood pressure, improved cardiovascular fitness, relief of chronic pain, improved internal circulation, and overall feelings of well-being. It is also associated with improved muscle strength, coordination and flexibility, pain and stiffness relief, improved balance, reduction of falls in order adults, and increased energy, agility and endurance. All these noted health benefits are contributed by continuous, smooth, and harmonious Tai-Chi movements. The latest advances and scientific research on Tai-Chi Each Tai-Chi can be also found at the World Taiji Science Federation at https://wtjsf.org/.

Abstract

Tai-Chi (or also called Taijiquan) is a form of mind-body "soft style" martial arts originated from China. Sometimes referred to as "meditation in motion". It is a dynamical process of balancing Yin and Yang driven from intention, through breathing energy, to body movements. Every movement of Tai-Chi is driven by Tao’s thoughts. Tai-Chi has been practiced worldwide for a variety of reasons, most commonly for its health benefits. Tai Chi promotes serenity and clarity and brings about calmness of mind and balance of life. It is also known to reduce anxiety and depression. Recent scientific studies have also suggested that Tai-Chi offers numerous health benefits; improved sleep quality, lowered blood pressure, improved cardiovascular fitness, relief of chronic pain, improved internal circulation, and overall feelings of well-being. It is also associated with improved muscle strength, coordination and flexibility, pain and stiffness relief, improved balance, reduction of falls in order adults, and increased energy, agility and endurance. All these noted health benefits are contributed by continuous, smooth, and harmonious Tai-Chi movements. The latest advances and scientific research on Tai-Chi Each Tai-Chi can be also found at the World Taiji Science Federation at https://wtjsf.org/.
