Celebrating World Tai Chi Day

OnSaturday, April 29th residents of Twin Lakes participated in the worldwide celebration of Tai Chi. On the last Saturday in April over 80 countries devote time to Tai Chi, through Tai Chi teach-ins and demonstrations. Our community’s Tai Chi instructor, Cheryl, really opened our eyes to the wonder of Tai Chi. Not only did she give all attendees the chance to participate, but she brought in her Tai Chi students to demonstrate different forms of Tai Chi.

Dressed in red robes, Cheryl’s tai Chi students really showed off the different forms of Tai Chi that exist. One form uses swords to create a slow flowing movement that almost looked like a dance. They also demonstrated fan form of Tai Chi, which gained popularity after the 2008 Beijing Olympics. This form incorporated both fast and slow movement. It was beautiful to see the fan form performed in unison by Cheryl’s students.

Tai Chi is a low-impact exercise that puts minimal stress on muscles and joints, but offers improved balance, increased leg strength, improved mobility, and maintains or increases flexibility. And it’s just FUN! Studies have shown that doing an hour of Tai Chi is equivalent to walking 2 miles. So, it was wonderful to come together as a community to learn more about this wonderful exercise. Our Tai Chi classes take place on Tuesday at 10:00am in the Aerobics Room, and all are welcome to give it a try!
