Tai Chi with Rob Metcalf – Fall 2024

Fairlawn Avenue United Church 28 Fairlawn Avenue, Toronto, Toronto, Canada

Please note new time effective October 21, 2024 -> 2:30pm - 3:45pm. Join Rob Metcalf for this 10-week series of Tai Chi Monday afternoons at 3:15pm to 4:30pm, September 9 to November 25, 2024. Please note – there are NO CLASSES due to stautory holiday on: Monday, Septemeber 30 National Day of Truth & Reconciliation - CLOSED Monday, October 14 Thanksgiving - CLOSED To register or for information, please contact Rob at . This gentle form of exercise can help maintain strength, flexibility, and balance.  Tai chi is often described as “meditation in motion,” but it might well be called “medication in motion.” There is growing evidence that this mind-body practice, which originated in China as a martial art, has value in treating or preventing many health problems. You don’t need to subscribe to or learn much about tai chi’s roots in Chinese philosophy to enjoy its health benefits, but these concepts can help make sense of its approach: Qi — an energy force thought to flow through the body; tai chi is said to unblock and encourage the proper flow of qi. Yin and yang — opposing elements thought to make up the universe that need to be kept in harmony. Tai chi is said to promote this balance.
