This course will provide students with an understanding of the body and mind health benefits of Tai Chi through learning and practicing a short set and other fundamental exercises. The benefits of practicing Tai Chi for health and well-being will be explored through a selected review of the research on the topic. This course will also prepare students to apply for certification to lead others in Tai Chi practice through the Arthritis Foundation (AF). This will be accomplished by providing students with both the didactic and the practice elements to meet AF requirements.
