Tai Chi: Moving for Better Balance is a fun class, using eight-forms. Accumulating evidence suggests that Tai Chi eight-form exercises is an effective means of improving balance, functional limitations, and strengthening muscles, which reduces the risk of falling. Tai Chi is a low-impact dance-like exercise that can be done in almost any location. It also helps to build confidence from the fear of falling, which is commonly found in a community of older adults.

Tai Chi offers other benefits for all ages, including improved posture, strengthening muscles and flexibility, improved mental and physical health,
improved musculoskeletal and cardiovascular conditions, improved sleep and stress reduction, to name a few. Class is free, but space is limited, so sign up at the reference desk. Will meet Tuesday and Thursday evening.
