BETHEL — Two popular free community programs for older adults – Walk the Gym and Tai Chi – are back this winter thanks to the generosity of Gould Academy offering its field house as the venue. Come Walk the Gym with friends and meet new people. While you are there, refine or learn a new skill by joining the Tai Chi class after walking.

The two free programs will run consecutively each Tuesday and Thursday beginning November 29 through the end of March 2023. Walk the Gym will be held from 1 p.m. – 2 p.m. Tai Chi will be held from 2 p.m. – 3 p.m. Walk the Gym is a drop-in program; no registration is necessary. Simply show up.

Registration for Tai Chi is required since the class size is limited. Contact Karen Reilly (reillyss@gmail.com or 617-549-1890) for more information or to register for Tai Chi.

The programs are offered as a collaborative effort among Bethel Area Rec, Gould Academy, and the Bethel Region Age-Friendly Community Initiative (AFCI). Note that AFCI offers free rides to both programs. Just call AFCI’s phone line at 207-824-4444 and leave a message. Hope to see you at the gym this winter!
