Fitness: Learn the Ancient Art of Tai Chi


Friday, Nov 1, 2024 to
Friday, Nov 29, 2024

Zoom
Online Event

Contact: AARP AK



Try our virtual tai chi classes to experience the pleasures and potential health benefits of this gentle, mindful workout.

About the Event

The ancient Chinese martial art of tai chi involves a slow, meditative series of movements designed to open the body, improve oxygen intake, and help the body restore itself.

The classes will teach eight forms of tai chi, incorporating diaphragmatic breathing into a series of 108 movements. Midway through each workout, we’ll pause for a three-minute guided relaxation to rest and benefit from having opened the body’s vascular and energetic systems.

Research has suggested that the health benefits of tai chi may include improved muscle strength, flexibility and balance and an easing of joint pain and stress. Please consult your physician before beginning any new exercise regimen.

Classes are taught by American Council on Exercise (ACE) Group Fitness Instructor Mitchell G. Menik, who is also an ACE Senior Fitness Specialist, an ACE Orthopedic Exercise Specialist, and an American Tai Chi and Qigong Association Certified Master Instructor.
