Do you feel like your balance is off? Learn gentle exercise options that can help reduce the risk of falling. Registration required.

Ascension Parish Library teamed up with the Capitol Area Agency on Aging for an evidence-based fall prevention program for adults 60 and older. Tai Chi for Arthritis and Fall Prevention offers a gentle exercise option to help reduce the risk of falling by improving strength, balance, coordination, and flexibility.

Endorsed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Arthritis Foundations around the world, Tai Chi is easy, enjoyable, and safe for people with or without arthritis to learn. Medical studies have shown that the program can relieve pain for people with arthritis, improve their quality of life, and prevent falls for older adults.

Wear flat shoes and comfortable clothes! No prior experience is necessary; however, class size is limited.
