Fall Prevention Tai Chi in Weathersfield

Jan 30, 2025, 9:30 to 10:30 AM

This program is offered FREE to seniors by Senior Solutions and the Weathersfield Parks & Recreation Commission. Instructor: Karen Gautney, certified by Tai Chi Vermont and Tai Chi for Health Institute.

Class meets at 9:30-10:30 am every Thursday for 8 weeks (January 16 - March 6, 2025) at Martin Hall in Ascutney (Weathersfield Town Office), lower level. Each class builds on the previous lesson, therefore regular attendance is encouraged.

Tai Chi is often described as meditation in motion. It is clinically proven to reduce the risk of falls and improve balance among older adults. Through slow, gentle movement, participants gain flexibility, muscle strength, improved posture, better balance, and greater concentration. Tai Chi can be practiced either standing or seated.

No experience is needed. Participants are encouraged to wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing and well-fitted flat shoes that cover your toes and heels. While targeted to older adults, these classes are appropriate and beneficial for people of all ages who want to experience beginner Tai Chi.
