Joan Roulac is offering a free, introductory class of T’ai Chi for Orcas seniors.

Seniors practicing T’ai Chi have a 47 percent fewer chance of falling, according to the Mayo Clinic’s research.

“Balance is still the number one request in my classes, followed by wishes for more vitality, strength, and inner peace,” said Roulac.

T’ai Chi’s flowing meditative movements are simple, repetitive, and easy enough for anyone to practice and experience desired results regardless of age or physical condition, says Roulac.

The free class is scheduled for Monday, Jan. 12 from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. at the Orcas Senior Center.
