Tai Chi for Health and Fitness Wrap-Up
About 20 EWGA Fox Cities-Green Bay members and their guests enjoyed a January afternoon learning the fitness and relaxing qualities of Tai Chi. Participants were introduced to the ancient Chinese martial art form and learned various poses and movements. As an observer the form looks like slow dance movements and breathing, but as a participant you quickly see it is much more. Done correctly, this exercise tones physically and centers mentally. The exercise ends with a meditation allowing participants to clear theirs minds and relax their bodies before the everyday commitments hurried back in.

Tai Chi hip movements in the basic Tai Chi Fold and Power Stance are the same used in a golf swing. Weight shifting and hip turns practiced while exercising help make the golf hip action more automatic when addressing a golf ball.

For more information on Tai Chi, contact Betty Driessen 920-470-1869 or the Valley Martial Arts Center 920-733-4600. Beginning classes are now forming. Mention EWGA when you call.
