Health benefits of Tai Chi

I saw ads for tai chi for a long time and thought of a Chinese hearts and minds campaign. That article reads like it was sponsored as well. Anyone else with the same impression?

"this gentle form of exercise" - cue Chen Xiaowang (head of one of the major styles of Tai Chi) : https://youtu.be/gj6UaEay5Lg

... And yet this article doesn't link a single one. This is just a marketing post, nothing interesting here. I'd expect better from a university.
