So it's the time of year for wet leaves, snow and ice - slippery!
To take care of yourself while getting about try tai chi walking. Think of your legs as the foundation, with your hips, chest and head balancing one on top of each other. Once you have the centre line balanced, step forward and move forward as one stack, and that will keep your centre of gravity over the load bearing leg. Come and give tai chi a go at our next Monday class. Beginners always welcome.
