The instructor was knowledgeable and I am very pleased with the progress I made.
FITNESS Better Balance Balance allows us to move with more refinement, more efficiency and more pleasure, and helps us avoid falling. This class will help you revive movement in key areas of your body essential for balance. Unlike many Feldenkrais® classes, this training will take place primarily in a seated position on a chair or standing near the chair. It is therefore more suitable for people who have difficulty getting down on the floor. HSC 4457 $69

Chen-Style Taiji Chen, the oldest style of tai chi, is characterized by silk reeling (energy coiling and disbursement) and alternating fast/slow motions and bursts of power. While this is a more energetic style with kicks, powerful punches and deeper stances, you will perform to your own level of comfort. Chen is the parent style to the five main Taiji styles, combining self-discipline, graceful movement and effortless power. PEA 4019 $189 | mandatory fee: $20
