Come to Tai chi classes. No need to sign-up, just stop in!

Tai chi is fast becoming a popular exercise program for people with MS.

The Oak Clinic now offers classes for both walking and non-walking patients.

Dixie Cain-Hargrove is a certified tai chi instructor and a licensed Physical Therapy Assistant. She will help you learn the benefits of this ancient martial art. Improved flexibility, balance and strength, as well as a wonderful sense of relaxation, are what many MS patients experience after only a few sessions.

Classes are held weekly on Tuesdays at 5:30 PM.

There is no charge to attend. But space is limited.

Please call us to reserve your space: 330-896-9625.
