Tai chi Instructor Mark Tracy moved his class at the Colerain Township Senior and Community Center outside into the sunshine to take advantage of the some of the last warm days of the season. The ancient art of tai chi uses gentle flowing movements to reduce stress and promotes serenity through gentle movements — connecting the mind and body. Originally developed in ancient China for self-defense, tai chi evolved into a graceful form of exercise. Photos by Tony Jones/The Community Press
