The Rock Tai Chi Club has been established since 1996. The fine Art of Tai Chi is taught three to four times a week using any available premises. We have been registered on a waiting list for an allocation of premises for over 15 years and still to no avail. Practising Tai Chi on a daily basis has benefited many students in Gibraltar. We want to continue to promote good health. Some of the benefits are: Relieves physical effects of stress, Promotes deep breathing, Reduces bone loss in menopausal women, Improves lower body and leg strength, Helps with arthritis pain, Reduces blood pressure,

Requires mind and body integration through mental imagery, Accumulates energy by releasing endorphins rather than depleting it, Enhances mental capacity and concentration, Improves balance and stability by strengthening ankles and knees, Promotes faster recovery from strokes and heart attacks, Improves conditions of Alzheimer's, Multiple Sclerosis, and Parkinson's. We will also incorporate Therapy Art Healing, Reflexology and Quantum Massage options.

We would like your support by signing this petition which will enforce our now urgent need for the premises to Government.

We are presenting our petition the Minister in Last week in June. Thank you

The government has spent fifteen years ignoring our need for a home and this surge in support proves they cannot hide from us any longer. We are building the momentum needed to force their hand and finally secure the space our community deserves.

I have known about Dilip's classes for many years and have always heard good feedback from his students and clients of ours who attend for therapeutic reasons.

Why an activity Like Tai Chi, that has brought so much enjoyment and improvement to Health should be so Ignored by Governments for so many Years, is beyond my understanding.

I had a condition that required me to take medication, thanks to Tai Chi I am no longer taking any medication.

Even if you are not actively practising Tai Chi, please sign and support us as we have been systematically ignored by Both Governments for 15 Years....

A vital part of a holistic approach to health and wellbeing is exercise and Tai Chi is a perfect exercise for strength, control, balance, stress relief and wellbeing.
