The Senior Center of the Chathams will begin a new session of Tai chi-Qi Gong on Thurs Feb 9 from 11am-12pm. It is taught by Cesar Godoy, who has been teaching and practicing the gentle martial art for decades. In addition he is a certified Master Hypnotist and Hypno-Counselor, with special training in Past Life Regression, Stress Management and Parts Therapy and a practitioner of meditation and a shamanic work facilitator.
Classes are held in the Chatham Township Municipal building’s gym on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11 am to noon. The class is designed for all levels of students with each participant working at his/her individual level of ability. The combination of slow movements with breathing specific to that motion, gently tones and strengthens the organs, joints, bones and muscles, relaxing mind, body and spirit. Participants also find an improvement in balance, thereby preventing falls and injuries. The cost of a session of 10 classes is $57. Students can opt to attend only one day per week for a cost of $35 for the 5 classes. Anyone interested may try out a class free of charge or obligation.
The Senior Center operates a van for door-to-door transportation to the Senior Center (and anywhere else in the Chathams and Madison) for Chatham seniors. For further information, please call the Senior Center at (973)635-4565.
