information SERVICE DETAILS

Tai Chi is a gentle but powerful form of flowing movement that may help in improving balance, spinal alignment and posture, physical strength, flexibility and cardiovascular fitness. By combining the slow movement with the breath many people find it beneficial in reducing stress and anxiety. Tai Chi can be done seated or standing or a combination of both depending on participants’ requirements.

Weekly sessions for people with Parkinson’s with care-partners able to attend when space allows.

Where: Barclay Viewforth Church, 1 Wright’s Houses, Edinburgh EH10

When: Tuesdays 11:00am - 12:00pm (may overrun slightly)

The online Parkinson’s Tai Chi class on Zoom takes place on a Wednesday from 11:30am - 12:30pm.

To join these sessions please contact Kevin via 01506 845 498 (please leave a message if out), or email: kevin@chi-flow.co.uk.

Newcomers are free for their first block or part thereof (depending on when they first join), as long as there is space.

The contribution towards class costs is £4 per session bookable in a block, the length of which can vary (generally 6 sessions).

Payment is preferably by cheque (to Edinburgh Branch Parkinson’s UK) at the first session (or the next session if someone has to miss the first). If cheque is not possible, participants can pay the block sum in cash but please put the money in an envelope with your name on it.
