It has been said, “Regular exercise is the closest thing we have to a fountain of youth.” Here at the West Chester Senior Center we believe it is very important to stay active throughout life, especially as we age. We offer a variety of exercise classes here at our center. We have everything from seated exercise to Tai Chi. Take a look — hope to see you here!

I am interested in attending the tai chi class. I am only 56,however. Am I too young to attend senior center classes?
Hi Sheree, thank you for your question. No, you are not too young to attend our classes. We do have members come in that are in your age group. As far as the Tai Chi classes go…..our instructor is ill right now and we hope he will return in September. We do have an 11:15 AM Silver Sneakers class on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays that also is attended by a young group of members, or Yoga on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 11:30 AM. Please feel free to contact us with further questions.
Do you need any mats or equipment for yoga?
Hi Lana, thank you for your question. All our participants bring their own mats & blocks to class, so we are OK and don’t need any yoga related equipment! Thank you again for thinking of us!
I am looking for a gentle yoga class. Currently I am attending a cardiac rehabilitation program and will finish in a couple of weeks. I have some back issues so I thought yoga would be a good place to start. Also interested in Tai Chi.
I’m interested in joining two classes scheduled for Fridays. Do I need to call and register, before attending the classes?
Thanks!
