Through the movements of Tai Chi and relaxed breathing you will cultivate, store, and circulate your internal energy. The movements are non-impact, smooth, and practiced very slowly at first. Western research has shown improvements in heart, bone, and muscle strength, as well as large reductions in the effects of stress, and an improvement in overall balance, with regular practice. This is the 23rd continuous year of Tai Chi classes through the Five Town Adult Education program!
