Definitely! Tai Chi in fact is a great exercise for kids to take up as a sports as it provides them with a large variety of motor skills learning and also helps them to be more calm and also more self-controlled. Tai Chi practices encourage self-discipline, patience, balance, co-ordination and also a high level of physical fitness.
However, the types of training methods applied to kids are generally quite different from adult. We normally cater to their growth & development stage where mixture of some higher intensity and fast pace Wushu movements are being introduced to keep them motivated, while the Tai Chi components are being introduced in between the learning.
