Self Pace (stage 1 & 2) TCA, TCAFP, TCA Part 2 & STCA and Updates with Tony Garcia

 INFORMATION:

The Tai Chi for Arthritis program was created by Dr. Paul Lam and his team of medical and tai chi experts almost 20 years ago. More than 30 medical studies have proven it to improve health and quality of life for almost anyone. People around the world have gained health benefits from it. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC.gov) support this program for fall prevention, it is a tier-3 funded program from the National Council on Aging (NCOA), and arthritis foundations around the world support it. Tai chi is proven to improve immunity by about 50%, reduce falls, reduce pain, reduce stress, and improve many other aspects of health.
