A fun & healthy exercise routine for your Sundays from the comfort of your home!
Tai Yi Swimming Dragon Quan 太乙游龙拳
Taiyi Swimming Dragon Quan is a gentle and flowing form of movement that combines Taichi, Qigong, and yogic stretching into one. This rare Taichi style, once a secret Yu family heirloom, circulates and cultivates Qi, as well as enhances balance, flexibility, and coordination.
