Good to know
How much do Tai Chi classes cost?
Single drop-in classes generally cost between $12 and $25 per session. Monthly memberships for 2 to 3 classes per week range from $70 to $140, while many senior centers offer subsidized rates of $5 or free sessions.
What should I wear to my first Tai Chi class?
Wear loose, comfortable clothing such as sweatpants or leggings and a breathable t-shirt. Footwear should consist of flat-soled sneakers, thin canvas shoes, or socks with grips, as thick running shoes can interfere with balance.
How does chair Tai Chi differ from standing classes?
Chair Tai Chi adapts traditional standing postures and weight shifts into seated movements to reduce joint stress and eliminate fall risk. It focuses on upper-body range of motion, controlled breathing, and core engagement for individuals with limited mobility.
