Looking for an easy, effective way to cope with stress? Try Tai Chi!

Starting Wednesday, May 9, Pat Walker Health Center's Wellness & Health Promotion department will offer a free, weekly Tai Chi class.

Tai Chi is a graceful form of exercise that helps reduce stress and anxiety, as well as improve flexibility and balance. Originally developed for self-defense, Tai Chi is described as moving meditation.

The new class is free for students, faculty and staff, and welcomes all levels of experience. No sign-up or registration is required.

Classes will be held at 11:30 a.m., every Wednesday in the brand-new Pat Walker Health Center second-floor Wellness Activity Room (north end of building).
