The Champlain Valley Agency on Aging (CVAA) is sponsoring a Tai Chi for Arthritis (TCA) program for older adults hosted by All Souls Interfaith Gathering in Shelburne. From Nov. 4 to Dec. 18 the class will meet twice a week, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:30 to 10:30am, at 291 Bostwick Farm Road.

TCA is a nationally recognized joint safe activity proven to reduce pain while improving balance, agility, and lower and upper body strength. Participation in TCA can reduce falls by 55 percent and recurrent falls by 70 percent. Statistically, if you have fallen in the last six months, you are likely to fall again.

To register, call Rachael at 865-0360, x1046, or email rachael@cvaa.org to register. Class size is limited and will fill quickly.
