Here’s to a healthy and happy New Year…

Health is the thing that makes you feel that now is the best time of year…

Franklin P Adams

Take the first step to improved health and happiness by starting – or returning to – a tai chi class.

Just recovering from one of those hacking coughs that’s hung around far too long and finally got back to my daily start to the day with some preps and standing Qi Gong. Lost count of the things tai chi helps me with – breathing, arthritis, and that all-round feelgood factor!! Add in improved blood pressure, sleeping well and pure enjoyment and it’s hard to work out why anyone wouldn’t want to help themselves to a dose of tai chi tonic!

Classes start again at Wing Village Hall on Friday, Jan 10 at 7.30pm. Look forward to seeing all our regulars, and if anyone fancies starting the New Year with a positive boost to your own health care system then look forward to seeing you too!!

Keep moving…

Want to stay young? Then start moving. A new study finds that exercise among older adults helps ward off depression, dementia and other health problems. 

People who partook in moderate or vigorous physical activity at least once a week were three to four times more likely to be healthy, compared with those who remained inactive, the researchers found. Moreover, people who were active at the start of the study were seven times more likely to be healthy than people who were inactive and remained so.*

Our weekly tai chi classes are low impact, an easy way to keep fit, de-stress, relax and feel great.

Come and join us at 7.30pm every Friday in Wing Village Hall – within 10 minutes drive of Oakham and Uppingham.
