LEWISTON — Are you looking for an accessible low-impact exercise program? Are you interested in managing pain or improving your balance? If so, Tai Chi for Arthritis and Falls Prevention is a program for you.
Tai chi provides a low-impact exercise that improves muscular strength, flexibility and fitness. Increasing your muscular strength supports and protects your joints, which will in turn reduce pain. Exercises that work on flexibility also help to reduce pain and stiffness, thus improving mobility. Tai chi improves your balance and significantly reduces the rate of falls in older adults.
Tai Chi for Arthritis and Falls Prevention can help you improve your quality of life and remain independent, and is proven to alleviate pain, through simple exercises to increase strength and balance.
SeniorsPlus is offering an eight-week long Tai Chi for Arthritis and Falls Prevention workshop from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. on Tuesdays and Fridays, Jan. 10 through March 3, in the Education Center, 8 Falcon Road. The program cost is $40.
