Tai Chi Class Offered at the LEC

If you've ever wanted to learn Tai Chi, a class sponsored by the Life Enrichment Center in Forest Hills is being offered at MOSI, or the Museum of Science & Industry.

The class will teach the "Yang" style of Tai Chi, and will run for six weeks on Monday evenings from Feb. 20 through March 26 at MOSI. The beginners class will be held from 6 until 7 p.m., and the intermediate class will be held from 7 until 8 p.m.

Ronna Metcalf, executive director of the LEC, 9704 N. Boulevard, said the class will be especially helpful for beginners.

"They will certainly improve their strength and stamina," she said. "It also has many health benefits, everything from lowering blood pressure to helping with balance."

The cost for the session at MOSI, 4801 E. Fowler Avenue, is $60. Class size is limited and requires advance registration.
