T’ai Chi Chih is offered Tuesdays at no cost and with no registration needed. Drop in as often as you would like and group participants will be happy to assist you if you are new to T’ai chi.

Tuesday Tai Chi Chih takes place from 10:00am-10:30am, outside (St. Francis of the Woods Area) if weather permits or inside in Room 211 (Julian of Norwich). Come in the main entrance, Door 3, and the receptionist can help you find room 211. This group meets all year and is self-directed by the members. No registration is needed and newcomers are always welcome.

Understanding Tai Chi Chih
Tai Chi, also called tai chi chih, is a noncompetitive, self-paced system of gentle physical exercise and stretching. To do tai chi chih, you perform a series of postures or movements in a slow, graceful manner. Each posture flows into the next without pause, ensuring that your body is in constant motion. Chairs are also available, if seating is more comfortable.

All forms of Tai Chi Chih include rhythmic patterns of movement that are coordinated with breathing to help you achieve a sense of inner calm. The concentration required for tai chih allows you to live in the present moment, putting aside distressing thoughts. To learn more, visit www.taichichih.org.
