Erin Reas will offer Tai Chi Easy classes in Dearborn, Woodhaven and Grosse Ile this fall. These simple, easy-to-learn classes help students lower blood pressure, improve balance and coordination, increase joint mobility, boost the immune system and reduce anxiety and depression.

Dearborn classes will take place at 10 a.m. Thursdays through December 15 at Good Shepherd United Methodist. Reas will teach classes at the Woodhaven Community Center at 11 a.m. Fridays through December 9, and the Grosse Ile classes will begin at 7:10 p.m. Thursdays through December 15, in the Centennial Farm Activity Room.

Trained and certi ed by Tai Chi Easy creator Roger Jahnke, Reas has been leading classes in the metro Detroit area since 2009. “I have been amazed by how much Tai Chi Easy has improved my physical and emotional health,” she says. “It is rewarding to see how these simple practices have improved the lives of the students in my classes.”
