Tai Chi for Beginners

About this event

With regular practice, Tai Chi improves balance by strengthening muscles and coordination; simultaneously, it strengthens the mind, enhancing calmness and confidence in not falling. Thus, both physically and mentally, Tai Chi is a highly effective exercise for fall prevention. This program is not just for folks with balance challenges. It can help improve flexibility and strength. The simplified movements of this short form are easy and satisfying to learn, adaptable for all ages and abilities, and are an excellent introduction to basic tai chi principles. All classes are sponsored by Age Well and are free of charge to seniors. This class will meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the basement Otter Creek Room from 11 am to 12 pm. Contact Dan Bagley (bagzs@yahoo.com) for more information. This class is open to new students.
