New start dates coming soon!
Tai Chi (Taiji) is a gentle, low-impact exercise suitable for participants of any age and varying physical ability. It is a therapeutic exercise derived from Chinese martial arts, focusing on the circulation of Chi (Qi), or "life energy" found within all living things. Sometimes called "moving meditation," millions around the world practice it daily as a gentle stress-reducing exercise.
Qigong is introduced to help beginners understand and feel Chi (Qi).
Some benefits of Tai Chi include:
~ Reduced stress
