"I haven't fallen again."

"I've fallen and broken bones. So scary! But since taking Tai Chi for Balance, I'm much steadier, and have not fallen again. Chris is a wonderful teacher!"

Why Tai Chi for Balance Works

Falling is the #1 cause of injury for adults 65+.

Falls send 3 million adults to emergency room each year and are leading cause of injury and loss of independence.

Injuries from falls include fractured wrists, broken hips, cracked skulls, concussions, sprains, strains, cuts, and bruises.

Yet falls are preventable.

Leading medical authorities, including the CDC, Harvard Medical School, and the Mayo Clinic, recognize Tai Chi as the #1 exercise for preventing falls.

In this 10-week Tai Chi for Balance Course Level 1 Course, you’ll:

• Strengthen Your Legs and Hips

• Develop Whole Body Awareness

• Improve Posture

• Learn Practical Strategies for Avoiding Falls

With Tai Chi for Balance Training, you'll build strength, stability, and confidence in your ability to move safely and comfortably.

By the end of the course, you’ll feel stable, secure, and confident on your feet.

Recommended by Physicians

"Tai Chi for Balance is a much-needed program for anyone who has ever struggled with gait unsteadiness and falls.
The explanations on how and why Tai Chi works are based on the medical literature and Chris Cinnamon’s extensive experience in teaching adults.
This is a wonderful resource for my patients!"

- Jinny Tavee, MD, Chief of Neurology, National Jewish Health

“Falls are devastating not only for older adults, but for middle-aged and younger people with musculoskeletal conditions such as arthritis.
Even the fear of falling can adversely impact mental health and profoundly reduce quality of life.
Chris Cinnamon has created an evidence-based program to help improve balance and stability while restoring peoples' confidence and trust in their own bodies.”

- Kharma Foucher, MD, PhD, University of Illinois at Chicago
