Tai chi
Another complimentary batch of Tai chi manuals have been published for those completing the most recent class. Tai chi: Moving for Better Balance is a free of charge wellness program led by Mary Foust at Logan Acres Senior Community.
Tai chi is a series of smooth individual dance-like movements and studies have shown that adults experience many health benefits including improved functional balance and physical performance; reduced frequency of falls; lowered blood presure; improved mental and physical well being; improved cardiovascular and respiratory function; improved sleep quality; and enhanced life independence and overall health through this ancient Chinese practice.
The sessions are sprinkled with laughter as participants not only improve their fitness but enjoy a unique camarderie as they get to know one another. For more information on this complimentary 13 session class, call Kathryn at 599-7293.
