TAI CHI (55 years & over) Derived from the martial arts, tai chi is composed of slow, deliber- ate movements, meditation, and deep breathing, which enhance physical health and emotional well-being. Tai chi improves over- all fitness, coordination, and agili- ty. People who practice tai chi on a regular basis tend to have good posture, flexibility, and range of motion, are more mentally alert, and sleep more soundly.
