TAI CHI: MOVING FOR BETTER BALANCE” FREE CLASS FOR SENIORS 55+ AND MILITARY VETERANS AND FAMILY MEMBERS

Each year, one in three adults aged 65 years and older fall, and 20-30% suffer moderate to severe injuries, such as cuts, hip fractures, and head traumas. Research has shown that practicing Tai Chi, a balancepromoting exercise, is an effective way for older adults to reduce risk of falling and to maintain independence. The “Tai Chi: Moving for Better Balance” program consists of eight Tai Chi forms practiced over a minimum of 12 weeks by community-dwelling adults aged 55+ who wish to reduce their fall risk by improving their balance, strength, mobility, and confidence in performing everyday activities. The eight-form routine adheres to the fundamental principles of traditional Tai Chi which involves weight-shifting, body alignment, and coordinated movements performed in a slow and gentle, continuous, circular and flowing manner. Research provides increasing evidence that Tai Chi also supports health benefits that include: reduction of blood pressure, improvement of muscular strength, balance and postural control, improvement of sleep quality, depression reduction, fall risk reduction by as much as 55%, enhancement of mental well-being, and improvement of overall quality of life. Program is sponsored by RSVP of Tulsa, Inc. Oklahoma State Department of Health and Creek County Health Department. Instructor certification training is provided by Creek County Health Department Master Trainer.
