Taichi-The Fountain of Youth

Every Wednesday and Saturday morning, Fo Guang Shan South Island Temple holds Taichi classes, with Buddha’s Light International Association South Island president Almeric Cheng, a veteran at Taichi, leading the class.

On the 3rd of December, 10 locals attended the Taichi class, with some of the participants being advanced students, and others just starting off. According to the students, Taichi; which is part of the traditional Chinese culture; can help reconcile one’s physical and psychological imbalance and improve one’s overall health.

Students also expressed that since practicing Taichi, they feel increasingly youthful and high-spirited, and all agreed that they will work hard together to learn as much as they can.
