At the opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games，tai chi performers impressed the whole world.A total of 2，008 performers stood in a large circle and moved slowly and calmly in their white silk uniforms.
Tai chi has always been a symbol of Chinese culture and is becoming popular around the world.According to Xinhua，this ancient martial art is practised by over 100 million people in more than 150 countries.It was added to UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage List in 2020.
Tai chi is popular because it's good for health.As you move，you breathe deeply and naturally，and you pay attention to your body，just as in some kinds of meditation（冥想）.This helps you relax and find peace in your mind.
According to Harvard Health，tai chi is helpful for almost everyone，from healthy people to those getting better from illness.This is because its movements are relaxing.
What makes tai chi even more interesting might be the ideas behind it.The word "tai chi" comes from Taoism.It believes people's movements should be slow and soft.It is not used to fight an enemy，but it is used to protect yourself.That doesn't mean it is weak.The principle（原則） of tai chi is to use softness to beat hardness.
Tai chi also pays attention to harmony（和諧） between yin and yang.For example，if you work too hard and feel tired，you have too much"yang".So it is time for you to calm down and get more "yin".This idea of keeping a healthy balance can be used to do many things in life.It makes tai chi famous all around the world.
