Friends Village: Where Purpose Meets Community

Friends Village

Friends Village offers community living rooted in purpose, belonging and choice. Blending Quaker values and active aging, we promote connection and care for one another. Our residents live well, engaged with the wider world and confident they will have support should they need it. Located on two campuses, Friends Village provides independent living and personal care in peaceful settings embedded in residential neighborhoods. Our Paxson Campus is in the heart of Newtown Borough, close to shops, dining and local events. Our Styer Campus, on Lower Dolington Road, boasts raised-bed gardens and walking paths for resident enjoyment. The full calendar of resident-informed programming features lectures, wellness classes, discussion groups and cultural events to promote residents’ intellectual, physical and social well-being. If needed, Friends Village provides our residents with flexible, affordable support in their own apartments through its NeighborCare program. By using our long-tenured and dedicated staff, it is a home care service without the onerous minimum hours or uncertain staffing of agencies. And if care needs increase further, personal care is available in our historic Paxson Hall. What truly sets Friends Village apart is the warm sense of community. While residents remain connected outside of our walls, our small size and intentional approach ensure that each resident is known and know that they genuinely belong – they thrive, make new friends and live well. Locations: • Paxson Hall Campus: 50 South Congress Street, Newtown PA 18940 • Styer Campus: 331 Lower Dolington Road, Newtown PA 18940

🌿 MOVE A LITTLE. BREATHE A LITTLE. FEEL A LOT BETTER.
Have you ever watched Tai Chi and thought, “That looks relaxing…but could I actually do it?”
Yes—you can. And that’s exactly why this class is such a wonderful fit for older adults.
This fall, Friends Village welcomes certified Tai Chi instructor Clyde Beury for a gentle, welcoming class designed to help you improve balance, build strength, increase flexibility—and maybe find a little more calm in your week.
No experience? Perfect. Prefer to sit? That works. Want to stand? Great. Not particularly flexible? You don’t need to be!
The program, developed by Dr. Paul Lam in collaboration with Tai Chi and medical experts, uses Sun Style Tai Chi—known for its slow, gentle, flowing movements and accessibility for older adults. Think of it as a little bit of movement, a little bit of meditation, and a whole lot of taking care of yourself.
Regular Tai Chi practice can help:
🌿 Improve balance and coordination 🌿 Build foundational strength 🌿 Increase flexibility and mobility 🌿 Encourage healthy breathing 🌿 Promote relaxation and calm 🌿 Keep both the body and mind engaged 🌿 And give you another reason to get out, meet people, and try something new!
Meet Your Instructor: Clyde Beury
Clyde brings much more than his Tai Chi certification to the class. After nearly 35 years as a Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor, he has spent decades helping and volunteering with others throughout the community. His philosophy is simple: every person has value and dignity and deserves to feel appreciated.
A longtime practitioner of Tai Chi and meditation himself, Clyde brings that same patient, thoughtful approach to his teaching.
To register or to learn more about these classes and more, visit our website at <a href="https://www.friends-village.org/tai-chi" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">friends-village.org/tai-chi</a> Or call Norma at (215) 968-3346 ext. 100
Whether you’re looking to work on your balance, stay active, reduce stress, or simply try something different, come give Tai Chi a try.
You don’t have to be good at it. You just have to show up.&nbsp;🌿
