Tai Ji Quan: Moving for Better Balance is an evidence-based program to reduce falls in the elderly through the practice of tai chi. Instructors learn a simplified, 8-posture tai chi form which they teach to older adults with balance problems in community settings such as senior centers. You will improve your own health while seeing others regain their balance, flesxibility, coordination and strength. Previous experience with tai chi is preferred but not required.

Description
Make a Difference in Your Community!
The Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) provides opportunities for people 55 and over to make a difference in their community through volunteer service. RSVP volunteers contribute anywhere from a few to over forty hours a week, serving through schools, day care centers, police departments, hospitals and other nonprofit and public organizations to help meet critical community needs. RSVP offers maximum flexibility and choice to its volunteers. RSVP matches the personal interests and skills of older Americans with opportunities to help solve community problems and offers supplemental insurance while on duty, and on-the-job training from the agency or organization where volunteers are placed.
