Tai Chi is a gentle Chinese exercise system that may enhance strength and flexibility as well as reduce stress. Just as many people in the West have found acupuncture and other forms of Chinese medicine to be beneficial and healing, Tai Chi is helping students achieve a higher degree of general health and well-being. The practice of Tai Chi helps to train and focus the mind as well: hence the meditative quality of life of individuals who choose to practice it. Dobson Ranch residents are especially fortunate to have the opportunity to learn this form free of charge on Wednesday mornings and evenings at La Casita Recreation Center. Non-residents pay a nominal fee, but the time and/or money are worthy investments. Come to class and see how you can change your life for the better!
