Moultonborough recreation department events and programs

MOULTONBOROUGH — Registrations are open for some exciting adult fitness opportunities at the Moultonborough Recreation Department.

Tai Chi with board certified instructor Ernie Graffam will be offered on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, 6-7 p.m. at MRD beginning April 4. This 8-week program will focus on arthritis and fall prevention. Tai Chi is a series of gentle exercises and stretches, sometimes described as “meditation in motion” because it promotes serenity through gentle movements, connecting mind and body. Tai Chi participants should wear sneakers or flat sole shoes as well as comfortable clothing.

MRD will also offer Chair Yoga with instructor Felecia Steriti beginning on Monday, April 10. Chair Yoga offers gentle, mindful movements to gain flexibility and core strength as well as tools for quieting the mind. This 4-week course will take place on Monday mornings 10:30-11:30 a.m. at MRD. Participants should bring two 4 inch yoga blocks and a yoga strap. The Recreation Department has some blocks and straps to borrow. Pre-registration is required and space is limited. Sign up online or in the recreation office. Moultonborough Recreation is located at 10 Holland St.
