SUMMARY:Tai Chi with Jane Sponiar
DESCRIPTION:Ever thought of trying Tai Chi? Make it part of your 2025 New Year’s Resolution!\nBeginner Classes Resume in March 2025!\nBenefits\nTai Chi, an ancient Chinese art, is widely spread today for its health benefits and as a form of meditation. Tai Chi practice improves balance and coordination, the first “visible” result. It is highly recommended for seniors as it is a safe way to engage in physical activity and promotes balance which is often the cause of falls and injuries as we get older. On a deeper level it stimulates energy flow into the internal organs, improves blood and lymph flow. Scientific research has shown that long-term Tai Chi practice may also augment the immune system, promote cardiovascular fitness, reduce arthritic symptoms, reduce headache pain, and enhance psychological well-being by giving practitioners a sense of better control of their health. Those benefits come from regular daily practice.\nClass Format\nTraditional class contains some breathing exercises which you may have heard of under the name Qigong. And of course, a person has to learn a form or routine which is done step by step at beginner levels. It may take a year or two to actually memorize the sequence but of course in the meantime we reap all the benefits anyway just engaging in regular practice. It is not about how many moves we know but how often we practice what we know!\nOur Tai Chi class at the Canyon Meadows Hall has been run under the guidance of Jane Sponiar since 1998! Jane has a degree in Kinesiology and Coaching and is certified by her Tai Chi master to teach it.\nBeginner level class will resume Thursdays in March 2025 from 11AM-noon. Advanced class will continue to run from 10-11AM.\nWe are excited to welcome you, please contact Jane (janesponiar@gmail.com) for cost and any other questions you may have.\n
