Take Charge With Tai Chi

am – 8 am
Rise early for a one-hour Tai Chi class and you’ll have

demonstrate how the practice of this ancient discipline integrates
mind with body to restore natural health and relieve stress. The
slow, controlled movements, deep breathing and use of mental imagery
work in harmony to boost balance, flexibility, vitality and inner
strength. The class is appropriate for all levels. Wear loose,
comfortable clothes. Please sign up for this free event when you
