Program Description

Event Description

Let’s get stronger, together! Evidence suggests that Tai Chi is an effective means of improving balance, strengthening muscles, and building confidence to prevent falls. Tai Chi is a low-impact dance-like exercise that can be performed almost anywhere.

The movements of the Chinese martial art Tai Chi can help seniors reduce the risk of falling, increase balance, and increase flexibility. This six-week class teaches participants ways to improve their overall mind, body, and spirit through a series of slow continuous movements. It does not matter how strong, flexible, or active you are as Tai Chi is designed for people at all levels of health.

Class is free, but registration is required and space is limited to allow for proper social distancing. Participants who have not received the COVID-19 Vaccine are asked to wear a mask.

To register for the class or for more information, please call 405-271-8558 or email OHAI@ouhsc.edu.
