Meet the team
We look forward to meeting you!
A gentle session for movement, balance and mobility, suitable for those looking to maintain and improve balance and improve mobility in later years. These sessions are more relaxed than traditional Tai Chi/Shibashi sessions and suitable for beginners.
Participants should be able to self mobilise and take instruction to attend the sessions.
Sessions cost £2:
More Shibashi sessions will follow at other venues in the near future.
This is a new addition to our 'Best Step Forward' programme currently running Strength & Balance sessions, Health Walks and Falls Prevention sessions.
