Tai Chi for Seniors in Balclutha

Join our weekly Tai Chi class geared towards older adults at Te Pou Ō Mata Au, the Clutha District War Memorial and Community Centre in Balclutha, Otago. This gentle exercise focuses on falls prevention and uses simplified movements from Dr. Paul Lam's program. It's led by trained Peer Leaders in a friendly, supportive group setting that's great for beginners.

The sessions help build balance, strength, and flexibility while being suitable for those over 65 with reasonable mobility—all ages are welcome too. You'll enjoy the social side of practicing with others in a welcoming environment. Tai Chi's slow, deliberate moves make it a low-impact way to stay active and feel more confident in your daily movements.
