Aikido.\n\nIt's awesome, and even fat guys can do it (ie Steven Seagal).

Many things can help: meditation, breathing exercises, yoga, et.  I personally like Taijiquan (Tai Chi).  Find a local practitioner in one of these arts and speak to them.

The best way to increase Chi is by deep breathing exercises. Also improves definition of abs, so go for it. Other than that all exercise is good for chi, just don't over or under train.

Go to a martial art class.\nAfter that he will come here and ask the same question.

Hello.  I've trained and taught in Tai Chi Chuan since 1993. Tai Chi and yoga are two completely different things.  Because some people use and teach tai chi as a 'moving meditation' people think its the same as yoga.\n\nactually yoga is not a meditation per se.  yoga was used to keep the body stretngthened because of long periods of meditation. \nYou 'can' use meditation in movement but its very different than deeper meditation used in sitting.\nYoga is very good for opening the joints and stretching muscles and tendons and ligaments.\n\nTai Chi Chuan is actually a martial art.  if you find a good teacher you can gain a lot from tai chi.  though many teachers will give a very watered down version of what tai chi is.\nits a martial art. period.  but tai chi is often taught as a 'new age' exercise.  it would be like taking western boxing slowing it down and saying its good for you.\nsure it is but the benefits are not the same as boxing.\nso too real tai chi chuan and 'new age' tai chi are very different.\n i could go on and on but in short  it depends on what you want to achieve.    in closing i could tell you that you could do both tai chi and yoga. they are very good for different things. in both though you will learn balance and lower leg strength...and calming the mind.\nbut thats about it.

There are a variety of martial arts forms/systems out there.\nI think you should re-evaluate your reasons for wanting to learn them, your question seems to focus more on feminine movement, whereas the arts are geared more toward pugilism.\nI do not mean to imply that they will not teach you the attributes you have listed, simply that you may feel more comfortable focusing on something else to provide these elements without the effort involved to attain your goals.\nMartial arts have been around for as long as humans have.\nThere are literally hundreds of different branches/styles/systems out there.\nGenerally speaking the arts can be classified as either "hard" or "soft" styles. This refers to the arts methodology and instruction parameters. Hard styles usually involve a more direct forceful approach in there applications. Softer styles are more about learning to redirect/redistribute a particuler "energy" that is being focused, either with or without damage to your opponent. Hard styles often result in injury in their more direct approach.\nTai chi is an excellent soft art that focuses more on the movement and energy associated within a particuler technique as well as fine tuning your mind/body "fortress".\nIf you prefer something that is not geared specifically at the martial arts, maybe you should try something along the lines of dancing/aerobics. There are some really great programs out there for this purpose.\nOne thing to consider is the group factor. You would probably be more apt to "keep up" with the regimen if you had others to "compete" with. Often a solitary workout will lead to isolation and dis-interest in the activity.\nI would personally think that a Modern Dance class would be great to express yourself in and gain all the attributes you are looking for.

Try Taichi and meditation.  It will bring focus and balance aiding both stamina and endurance.  Seek Chinese taichi Master (Sifu/Teacher).

There is a park called People's Square where local wu shu masters practice.  Try there and hook up with one of them and see if they are will to train you.

I'm a big fan of Kick boxing aerobics or tai bo, but I think that belly dancing classes would be alot of fun too. But, my roommates just bought a DDR (Dance Dance Revolution) game and it is tons of fun and has been keeping us up and moving for hours at a time ever since we got it.

It would be better if you learn it from a Yoga teacher as posture, breathing and procedure to do pranayam should be correct.

Hi and be blessed, I teach HapKiDo a corean martial art of self defense in the country of Panama and have been teaching this art for 29 years. The study of Chi or Ki as is called in Korean (Corean) is very interesting because it is a development that helps you besides increase the inner energy or life force, very important to learn it from a qualified teacher. \n\nThe best way to lear and increase your Ki is by breading and the best way is by inhaling slow and deep with out hearing the breath in your nose and exhale the same way out the mouth. It can be done in 4 basic ways: standing, seated, laying down or walking. \n\nYou must be patient ! To learn to increase the inner energy is a development thing so no rush. With time you will feel the Ki flow in your body, it is not a magic thing since all persons have Ki it is not an aout of this wold thing it is just some thing a person doing this activity dailly and with patience.\n\nAt first one must balance the breath. This means that the inhale and exhale must take the same length in time for example start wit 3 or 4 seconds inhale and balance the same exhaling and once this happens continue incresing the time span but make sure it feals confortable as you do this training since it really is not dangerous to do but it is a sencible thing to work with and it is true that doing it wrong can hert you like drinking water incorrectly.\n\nThis can be learned in HapKiDo, AiKiDo, TaiChi, Ki Gong or Chi Kung/Gong etc. Were ever you find the place and how to know if you found it is by doing this activity in a relaxful way ! Good luck.
