Celebrating our Tai Chi project
Our beginners’ tai chi class for local people aged 50+ has been running since late 2022 with funding from Lambeth Council’s Active Lambeth grant scheme.
Classes ran on Wednesday mornings and have attracted between 15 and 20 people each week, most of whom have become regular attendees. Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive with participants reporting improved balance, flexibility and generally feeling more connected to their community. We celebrated the final funded session with a delicious healthy lunch supplied by En Root – much enjoyed by everyone!
Although funding has now ended we will trial continuing the class from Wednesday 7 June at a fee of £4 per week – we’ll need at least 12 participants each week to enable the class to go ahead but hopefully this can happen. Everyone is welcome to join and the class – no booking required. In the meantime we are also applying for further funding for more classes to improve our communities’ health and wellbeing.
