A SEATED Tai Chi session will take place in Hartford this month.

The taster session will take place at Hartford Village Hall on Tuesday, September 19, from 1.30pm.

Tai Chi trainer Jia Liu, from China, said the classes help older people stay active without being too strenuous.

As well as teaching in Hartford, she also teaches in Middlewich, Winsford and Holmes Chapel.

She said students who have taken part in the seated classes have said it has helped reduce blood pressure, helped ease joints and reduced pains from arthritis.

The Hartford class previously had several regular members but due to a variety of health issues, the classes have dropped off significantly.
