Low-impact martial arts such as Tai Chi are often recommended due to their focus on gentle movements and self-defense techniques that can be adapted to individual abilities. Tai Chi emphasizes fluidity and grace over strength and speed. Tang Soo Do is also an excellent practice as it provides the "harder" side of martial arts. A combination of Tai Chi and Tang Soo Do is what makes our program unique and well-suited for older adults.
Individuals with physical limitations can still participate in martial arts. TSDS provides an adapted approach to classes that cater to individuals with varying abilities. Individuals must always obtain a release from their doctor before engaging in any physical activities.
