We are planning to offer Tai Chi in the next little while at Healing on the Danforth.

We have probably all heard about the importance of strengthening the “core” muscles as part of a practice in getting fit. Similarly, Tai Chi places emphasis on strengthening that area of the lower abdomen located just below the belly button and known as the “Dan Tian.”

I am welcoming Heather Speer as a colleague at Healing on the Danforth.  Heather is a certified personal trainer, group fitness instructor and specializes in fitness with older adults.

Perhaps my intention to have a quarterly newsletter was too ambitious.  I know that by definition the word "quarterly" does not mean once a year!  Life has a habit of getting in the way and I know I have been neglectful in offering regular contributions.  So I have decided to change the format to a regular blog with shorter offerings.   I hope you find this both informative and entertaining.
