- Aids in balance and coordination
Health Benefits:

Seated Chair Tai Chi is a unique and therapeutic exercise modality that can be seamlessly incorporated into senior or healthcare facilities to promote holistic well-being. Additionally, the fusion of Yang Style Tai Chi forms and meticulous exercises, such as Shaolin muscle and sinew exercises, qigong detoxing techniques, and healing visualization, contribute to the comprehensive benefits of this practice.

If you’re experiencing back pain, the incorporation of seated chair tai chi poses and easy yoga can offer relief and contribute to your overall physical and mental wellness.
