CASUAL CLASS – Tai Chi for Arthritis

May 27, 2022 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

$12.00

Casual Class Attendance:

IMPORTANT:

  • We are unable to offer casual attendances on an ongoing basis for term classes.
  • You will only be entitled to 1 casual class to see if the class is suitable for you.
  • If you’d like to continue for the remainder of the term, please advise Arthritis WA and we’ll be able to arrange a pro-rata amount to be paid for the remainder of the term.


Class Details:

The Tai Chi for Arthritis program was created in 1997 by Dr Paul Lam and a team of tai chi and medical experts. The program is designed to improve muscular strength to support and protect the joints, as well as flexibility and mobility to reduce pain and stiffness. The focus on weight transference improves balance which reduces falls, and the movements increase fitness which promotes the proper functioning of the heart and lungs. The program also helps to relieve pain, reduce stress and increase relaxation.

*Please wear loose comfortable clothing and flat soled shoes, and bring a water bottle.

Venue: Seminar Room, Wyllie Arthritis Centre, 17 Lemnos Street, Shenton Park.
Term Cost: $95 (8 weeks)   1-time casual visit = $12
