Tai Chi
Gentle exercise and relaxation
Tai Chi is a gentle exercise that brings together deep breathing, relaxation, and slow, graceful movements. As it is greatly based on technique, it doesn’t matter if you are not very strong or flexible. Our class is adapted so you can do it seated or standing.
A research review on the MS Trust website said ‘Tai Chi has been found to be safe and positive effects have been seen in MS on leg strength, walking, balance, coordination, flexibility, anxiety, depression and pain. It has been found to improve focus, muscle tone and balance, as well as to relieve stress and lower blood pressure.’
Tai Chi can help with
- Wellbeing

Tai Chi runs on Thursdays at 1.30pm, available in person and online with therapist Jackie.
This class is fun and gentle, but loosens up my muscles and makes me feel very positive about my body because most of it is achievable!
