Tai Chi for Beginners (New classes Forming!)

Tai Chi

Taiji (Tai Chi) is a sequence of postures connected by flowing movement, practiced with focused breathing and a calm mind - a type of moving meditation. The slow, smooth movements gently stimulate the internal organs and joints, and improve energy circulation. Taiji is a gentle, low-impact exercise suitable for adults of any age and varying physical ability.

Practicing Taiji can reduce stress, increase energy, balance, and flexibility, and ease symptoms of many health problems such as high blood pressure, asthma, back pain, and arthritis.

Next Beginners' Tai Chi sessions start:

  • Thursday mornings, September 16, 2010 10:30 - 11:45 am (8 weeks) (Instructor: Meg Holmes)
  • Sunday mornings, September 19, 2010 8:00 - 9:15 am (12 weeks) (Instructor: Meg Holmes)
  • Monday evenings, September 20, 2010 8:00 - 9:15 pm (12 weeks) (Instructor: Paul Blake)
