The Art of Tai Chi


The White Oak Martial Arts Center is greatly honored to be the Official East Coast WACIMA-USA Training Hall with a certified curriculum of authentic Tai Chi with the approval of Grand Master George Xu focusing on the following benefits for our students:


Stress Reduction -- Enjoy the meditative, relaxed environment to be better able to deal with life's stresses.


Injury prevention -- Learn how to move your body correctly and with proper alignment to avoid injury or to avoid further injury to an existing condition.


Greater Health and Well Being -- Tai Chi has been proven to be of tremendous benefit to literally all of the systems of the body by aligning your breathing, pulse, and skelatol structure. This allows chi (internal energy) to flow smoothly as it should.


Focus and Mental Accuity -- By practicing meditation and Tai Chi you will even find that your ability to focus will improve tremendously as well as your "mental endurance"- your ability to stay on task longer.


For hundreds of years people have been astounded by the mental, physical, and spiritual balance and well being that they enjoy through the study of Tai Chi. Not to mention that it is one of the most effective self defense arts in existence (though that isn't why we do it).

When I started Tai Chi at Croley’s Martial Arts I had hypertension and chronic neck and shoulder pain. I still have both, but am taking less medicine for my hypertension. It is under excellent control and the medication I was able to drop was the stronger one that was also giving me unpleasant side-effects. I was taking Aleve each morning and evening and now I only occasionally take Ibuprofen for my neck and shoulders. These are only two of the measureable benefits I’ve experienced since starting at Croley’s! Thanks!
