Tai Chi
Tom Hynd began practicing Tai Chi in the mid-1990s after sustaining injuries to both of his shoulder rotators. This practice has successfully maintained his shoulder health. In 2003, while in Vancouver, Tom had the opportunity to meet Dr. Paul Lam from Australia. For the past 20 years, he has been following Dr. Lam's Tai Chi program, which focuses on arthritis and physical health.
He leads a one hour chair TaiChi session on Wednesday morning from 10:00 to 11:00. No past experience needed. These sessions can increase flexibility and strength and improve cardiovascular fitness and is great for your balance.
