Taijiquan at the Parco delle Terme: harmony, relaxation, and summer vitality in Riolo Terme
The Municipality of Riolo Terme, as part of its initiatives dedicated to wellness and active tourism in the Faenza region of Romagna, presents a program entirely dedicated to the practice of Taijiquan (also known as Tai Chi Chuan). Throughout the summer, participants will have the opportunity to experience this ancient internal martial art, considered a true meditation in motion.
Finding balance between mind and body immersed in greenery
The guided lessons will take place outdoors in the natural setting of the Parco delle Terme. Through a sequence of slow, fluid, and strictly controlled movements, the practice of Taijiquan allows you to harmonize body and mind, improving postural balance, concentration, and muscular flexibility. Inspired by the continuous alternation between fullness and emptiness (the philosophical principles of Yin and Yang), this discipline teaches us never to pit force against force, but rather to favor the softness and roundness of movements to release daily tensions, offering a profound moment of relaxation, health, and vitality.

A legendary origin: Tradition attributes the birth of Tai Chi to the Taoist monk Zhang San Feng on Mount Wudang around 1200 AD, fascinated by a duel between a snake and a bird of prey, where the reptile managed to triumph thanks to the flexibility, softness, and perfect circularity of its protective movements.
