Congratulations on treating yourself so well - you've realised that your health is your greatest asset, and you are seeking ways to enhance your wellbeing. And yes, Tai Chi is one fantastic way to improve and maintain your wellbeing, both physically and mentally.

Better Life Tai Chi seeks to give you Tai Chi skills which will allow you to improve your body and your mind.

As we are sure you already know, Tai Chi is a gentle, low-impact form of exercise, suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels. It gives a whole body work-out, slowly and gradually stretching and opening all the joints, improving blood flow, and providing gentle massage to the internal organs. As you continue to practise over the months and years, you will notice increased flexibility, improved balance, increased endurance and better stability.

Learning and practising Tai Chi also "works out" your brain. Whilst not difficult to learn, remembering the Tai Chi pattern and learning to move your body in what are sometimes new ways creates subtle new challenges for your brain, and so your learning capacity opens up again. Again, as you continue to practise, you may note an improvement in memory and in your ability to learn new things.

Classes are available in Barwon Heads (outdoors) and at Ocean Grove (indoors). Ocean Grove classes are run through Bellarine Training and Community Hub (previously known as Ocean Grove Neighbourhood Centre).

Better Life Tai Chi offers your first two lessons absolutely free if taking an outdoor class in Barwon Heads, with no strings attached. So what have you got to lose? Come and give it a try. Find out for yourself how easy and enjoyable Tai Chi is, and how good you feel afterwards.

We look forward to seeing you soon!
