Each year FreeTimes surveys its readers on the BEST that Columbia has to offer, from food and nightlife to music, the arts, shopping and lifestyle options.

This year Columbia Tai Chi Center was among the nominees in the “Goods and Services” category competing for the title of “Best Martial Arts School.”

Although we didn’t win, and congratulations are in order to the winner –Capital Karate, and Genova Family Karate the runner up – we were HONORED to have made the list of nominees because we’re not the biggest school nor the oldest school in the Columbia Metropolitan area.

What we are is the ONLY school dedicated SOLELY to promoting the complete art of Tai Chi (which includes Qigong). Tai Chi and Qigong have been gaining major attention for their ability to promote and maintain health as many recent scientific studies have proven.

The terms Tai Chi and Qigong are still unfamiliar terms for many. But one day they will be household terms used by millions of new practitioners WORLDWIDE!
