Join us for an experiential introduction to Tai Chi with Ellen Crook.
Tai Chi is described as a “moving meditation." Hailing from ancient China, it is a practice that has been around for over 700 years. Although technically a form of martial arts, this low-impact type of martial arts is known for its smooth, gentle movements which create a sense of peacefulness and calm in the mind and body. Anyone can do Tai Chi, no matter your age or ability. You can even do it sitting down. Tai Chi has been scientifically proven to decrease stress, anxiety, depression, and blood pressure. All while improving balance, mobility, strength, and posture. And these are just some of the benefits. The more you do Tai Chi, the more benefits you obtain.
Ellen has been teaching Tai Chi since 2017. With a master’s degree in Exercise Physiology from Florida State University and over 20 years of experience in personal training, coaching, and instructing group fitness classes in ballet barre and senior fitness classes, she has worked with a wide range of abilities and ages.
