Tai Chi is an accurate reflection of the natural order of things. As we draw current into the body, value is seen as it moves through the body. Previously its value had been in potential only. E.g. Hoarding money. It has no value if one dies.

Pure potential never realised. The other extreme; if one fails to value the experience at all, just spend it, bleed it away.
Real value exists when both are honoured. Most important aspect is to honour the Wu Chi, otherwise expression is disempowered. Balance and moderation is vital, if an aspect is out of balance the whole is ill. Tai Chi as a vital part of Chinese Medicine.
Martial Art – as much an art as a discipline. Need to align with the natural flow of things to perceive harmony and disharmony. Need to develop both intuitive and rational aspects of self.
"Many people rightly believe that Shaolin Kung fu is the greatest martial art in the world. This claim, which devotees of other styles may vehemently dispute, can be substantiated from many angles.
Historically, Shaolin Kung fu is the most senior martial art in the world, with a continuous history of more than 3000 years, while some martial arts have barely 100 years. From the perspective of technique, Shaolin Kungfu contains virtually all the techniques found in all the world’s martial arts.
All the punches in karate, all the kicks in taekwondo, all the throws in judo, all the locks in aikido, all the holds in wrestling, all the jabs and hooks in Western boxing.
All the elbow and knee strikes in Siamese boxing, all the subtle twists and turns in Malay silat. Its range of weapons, totally absent in some modern martial arts is bewildering.
