Tai chi is a sequence of flowing, continuous movements, originally a martial art, practised slowly as a form that takes time to learn. Qi gong is a broader family of simpler exercises combining posture, movement and breathing, often repeated rather than sequenced, and easier to pick up. Both improve balance, calm the nervous system and can be practised at any age. Many people do both.
At Omnia, Tai Chi is delivered by 6th Generation experts as part of a holistic approach to health, focusing on improving movement, balance and overall wellbeing in a calm and supportive environment.
Yes. Tai chi is one of the most recommended forms of exercise for older adults because it improves balance and reduces falls, builds leg strength gently, eases joint stiffness and arthritis pain, and supports mood and sleep, all without impact or strain. It can be practised seated and adapted to any level of mobility. Trials show benefits well into the eighties and beyond.
Comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows you to move freely is recommended.
Two or three sessions a week is the frequency used in most trials showing benefits for balance, stress and pain, and daily short practice of 10 to 20 minutes is better still. One class a week with some home practice is a realistic starting point. Benefits for calm and mood appear quickly; balance and strength changes take eight to twelve weeks of regular practice.
Yes, and this is the best-evidenced benefit of tai chi. Trials in older adults show regular practice reduces falls by around a fifth to a half, and NICE and the NHS both recommend tai chi as a falls-prevention exercise. It works by training weight shifting, single-leg stability, leg strength and body awareness, all of the things that keep you upright when you trip.
Yes. Tai chi and qi gong are among the most beginner-friendly forms of exercise. Movements are slow, low impact and learned step by step, there is no need for fitness, flexibility or previous experience, and every movement can be adapted, including to seated practice. Most people feel the calming effect in their first class and the balance and strength benefits build over weeks.
