Our residents had a wonderful time doing Tai chi at The Mayfield. We invited a specialist Tai chi teacher into our care home to help our residents (and staff!) enjoy the benefits of this activity. It was a hugely enjoyable occasion which will become a regular part of our full and varied activities programme.
Tai chi has many benefits for people who take part in it. Improving balance can help to reduce falls, and it can also strengthen the muscles in your legs and increase flexibility and stability in your ankles. It can also increase the core strength of the body, which enhances stabililty and can reduce any back pain.
All this as well as being a lot of fun – we’re looking forward to many more sessions!
