Tai Chi in Haddonfield!

Try our 2 class trial or go for it with the full fall series!

Tai Chi is an effective low-impact workout that can improve balance, ease arthritis, and stimulate the immune system. Jack Poupard will teach the Yang form of Tai Chi which encourages soft, graceful movements reminiscent of dancing with an old friend. Jack has been a martial art instructor for over 50 years and a student of tai chi since 1980.
