About the Programme
Discover Tai Chi: Enhance balance, build strength, and boost confidence for a healthier and more active lifestyle.
Whether you're looking to stay active, enhance your mobility, or simply find a low-impact way to support your health, Tai Chi offers a holistic approach that benefits the mind and body alike.
Tai Chi’s deliberate and controlled movements are suitable for everyone, regardless of age or physical condition. These movements strengthen muscles, support joint health, and improve balance and body awareness. They are particularly valuable for reducing the risk of falls, enhancing mobility, and improving quality of life for participants across diverse lifestyles.
Key Benefits:
• Enhances balance and flexibility: Develops better body control and coordination
• Improves fitness and muscular strength: Promotes a strong and resilient body
• Boosts confidence in mobility: Encourages a sense of independence and ease in movement
• Supports joint health: Helps maintain mobility and prevent stiffness
• Promotes mindfulness and relaxation: Encourages mental clarity and stress reduction
Participant Guidelines:
• Wear flat, comfortable footwear (e.g., walking shoes)
• Dress in comfortable clothing (e.g., T-shirts and trousers)
This is a weekly LearnX Community that meets every Friday, 02:00pm-03:00pm (excluding Public Holidays) unless otherwise specified.
We strongly encourage participants to attend all sessions.
