Tai chi + wearable
The tai chi intervention will be delivered remotely via Zoom Enterprise. Participants will access classes on a phone, tablet, laptop, or desktop computer. Participants will attend 3 classes/week (each lasting 60 min) during weeks 1-12, 2 classes/week during weeks 13-16, and then 1 class every other week during weeks 17-24. Classes include tai chi warm-up exercises, breathing exercises, review and practice of tai chi forms, and cool-down exercises. Participants will be asked to practice tai chi at home 3x per week during the 6 month intervention period using an instructional video provided to them. The Fitbit fitness tracker will be given to each participant along with instructions on how to use the tracker and the Fitbit app on their personal device.
