Who This Guided Chair Tai Chi Course Is For

This self-paced course turns our free chair tai chi resources into a clear learning path. Instead of guessing what to practice next, you will move through a simple sequence that builds confidence week by week.

Seniors Starting Gentle Exercise

A calm, low-impact structure with daily practice times that begin small and increase gradually.

Beginners Who Need Clear Guidance

Each week tells you exactly what to practice, what to notice, and when to move on.

Caregivers and Group Leaders

The weekly structure is easy to follow at home or adapt for shared practice in a senior center.
