Aims & ObjectivesThese aims and objectives constitute the international mission statement of the Society. They were set by Master Moy Lin-shin and are shared by all branches of the Society, making us a truly international Society.
These goals, combined with the accreditation procedures for our volunteer instructors, assure that all obtain the same quality of instruction and dedicated leadership.
1. To make Taoist Tai Chi† internal arts and methods available to all
We are dedicated to bringing these arts and methods to every community,
so that their many benefits are available to all who wish to experience them.
2. To promote the health-improving qualities of Taoist Tai Chi† internal arts and methods
Practiced diligently, these arts and methods cultivate both body and mind to restore and maintain good health. Our efforts are directed at making these benefits better known and understood, in order to promote physical, mental, and spiritual well-being in the community.
3. To promote cultural exchange
Through Taoist Tai Chi† internal arts and methods, and through other activities, we endeavour to make the richness of Chinese culture more accessible, and thereby promote greater understanding and respect among people.
4. To help others
The foundation of Taoist Tai Chi Society† internal arts and methods is compassion. Our underlying charitable orientation is in keeping with the Taoist values of selflessness and service to others. Our inspiration is the example set by our founder, Master Moy Lin-shin, who dedicated his life to helping others without seeking personal gain. For this reason, all our instructors are volunteers, and all our branches operate on a non-profit basis. We also perform other services within the community, and assist other charities whenever possible.
