Welcome Participants!
This page is your one-stop-shop for study materials and resources. The purpose of this study is to explore the possible benefits of our ‘Tele Tai Chi’ program. It is an 8-week online, small group exercise class that features a seated Tai Chi program and interactive video chats. Using a computer or tablet, participants can join the “tele” (or virtual) Tai Chi class remotely. Classes are held twice weekly for 8 weeks and include pre-recorded lessons from the Seated Tai Chi for Arthritis program. This is an evidence-based, exercise program that uses gentle movements and controlled breathing. This program has been found to be safe and effective for older adults with a wide range of disabilities. It has proven benefits for pain relief and falls prevention. Each class starts and ends with a small group video chat where participants can see and talk to one another in a guided discussion.
