Tai Chi is an excellent falls prevention activity!
Bugbee Center’s Tai Chi Classes return to an in-person format with Anne Bower. Tai chi’s gentle, flowing movements are complex enough to be fascinating but easy to learn. With ample individual instruction everyone can gain the benefits—better balance, greater mindfulness, improved posture, reduced pain from arthritis, and for some folks, even better blood pressure and sleep.
Location: Lyman Park Bandstand when weather is good; Bugbee Senior Center if weather is stormy, really cool, or truly hot.
Sign up is encouraged, but drop ins are welcome. Cost is $3 per class payable to Bugbee Senior Center (when we are at Lyman Park bandstand, Anne will collect money and relay to Bugbee). For more information check out Anne’s website: annebower.studio. Call 802-295-908 to find out more.
