SeniorsPlus offers Tai Chi

FARMINGTON — SeniorsPlus is offering an 16-week long Tai Chi for Health workshop on Mondays starting June 26. The workshop will take place at the Farmington Recreation Center, 127 Middle St.

The Program cost is $40, although scholarships are available if needed.

Tai Chi provides a low-impact exercise that improves muscular strength, flexibility and fitness. Increasing muscular strength supports and projects joints, which will in turn reduce pain. Exercises that work on flexibility also help to reduce pain and stiffness, thus improving mobility. Tai Chi improves balance and significantly reduces the rate of falls in older adults.
