Feeling the strain of arthritis, and looking for a gentle yet effective way to stay active? Say hello to Tai Chi for Arthritis!
This is a specially designed program that brings the ancient art of Tai Chi to those in need of relief and mobility.
Keeping active is vital for people living with arthritis. Practicing Tai Chi can help gently exercise and strengthen almost
all of the muscles and joints in the body, while helping to support relaxation and wellbeing.
About Tai Chi for Arthritis
Tai Chi for Arthritis is more than just a fitness class; it's a carefully crafted movement therapy designed to help those living with
arthritis, diabetes, cardiac conditions, and osteoporosis.
Tai Chi for Arthritis is a program that was created in 1997 by Dr
Paul Lam,
with a team of tai chi and medical experts. Instructors of the program are trained to understand arthritis and ensure the movements
are safe for participants.
Our Tai Chi for Arthritis program is a virtual group movement program designed to help people living with arthritis learn safe
and suitable ways to exercise. Each week you can join our class from the comfort of your own home with a Certified Tai Chi for
Arthritis Instructor coaching you through a live session.
As a 12-week program, we’ll stay with you at each step of the way. We can help to keep you motivated, offer support, and also provide
additional resources so you can incorporate safe exercises into your lifestyle.
With the support of our online exercise community, we can help ensure you’re living life to the fullest.
