Tai Chi addresses the problems of weight transfer, muscle strength, instability and gait by teaching “correct” posture, body alignment and movement of lower limbs. Tai Chi requires slow movement from one stance to another thereby, training the participant to improve mobility and have increased body awareness. Numerous studies have concluded that Tai Chi is the best and most effective Fall Prevention training program.
