From the article:

"Tai chi represents optimal body movement, honed over centuries," said laboratory directorJessica Rose, PhD. "We're always interested in getting baseline biomechanical measurements from people who are highly skilled in particular types of movement. Although many people don't realize it, every one of those slow moves you see in the park can be transformed into really fast strikes."
