    The much-anticipated Tai Chi for Arthritis and Fall Prevention program is coming to Forsyth!  Find a friend or family member and get signed up soon! 
    This evidence-based program has been shown to prevent falls and reduce arthritis pain and stiffness among adults. Tai chi uses slow, gentle movements to engage the mind and body to build strength and improve balance. Tai chi can be done standing or from a chair. Participants will learn unique tai chi forms which include warm-up exercises, 6 Basic forms, 6 Advanced forms, and a cool down. We will meet twice a week for 9 weeks on Wednesday and Friday afternoons, August 20-October 24 (self-led 10/15) from 12:30-2:00 pm at the Community Presbyterian Church. The one-time fee of $50 per participant is funded by a grant from the Skaggs Foundation - so, there is NO COST FOR YOU! See attached flyer, call, or email for more information or special accommodations. Space is limited and registration is required. To register, call Melissa at 417-546-4431 or go online today. I hope to see you there!
