T’ai chi 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 takes place from 10:00am-11:00am, in Room 211 (Julian of Norwich) or outside (St. Francis of the Woods Area) if weather permits. 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
Tai Chi, also called tai chi chuan, is a noncompetitive, self-paced system of gentle physical exercise and stretching. To do tai chi, 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.

All forms of Tai Chi include rhythmic patterns of movement that are coordinated with breathing to help you achieve a sense of inner calm. The concentration required for tai chi forces you to live in the present moment, putting aside distressing thoughts.
