From the reviews
Dr. Mike Braitsch PT, DPT and everyone at Tribe Wellness are real hero’s to me. I’ve improved strength, posture, balance, stamina , dexterity and coordination from the group boxing classes for Parkinson's. It’s fun and motivating. It’s exactly what the Dr ordered!
Any time spent with Dr. Mike is time well spent. He has a deep understanding of Parkinson’s disease and physiology. He is enthusiastic and makes exercising enjoyable. Tai Chi and boxing have been very helpful in improving balance, strength and stamina. I highly recommend Tribe Wellness and Dr. Mike Braitsch.
Mike and his team of instructors and volunteers do an amazing job for Parkinson's patients. The classes are very rewarding and they make everyone feel special. They get people with Parkinson's moving, which is very important, and emotionally it is very rewarding. I Highly recommend.
A supportive and enthusiastic program for those with Parkinsons. Mike brings energy and encouragement to all participants. Thank you so much for an invaluable opportunity
New to tai chi? Start at Tribe Wellness LLC
Tribe Wellness LLC comes up as a beginner-friendly studio, going by its listing and students' reviews. If you've never tried tai chi, that's exactly who a good beginners class is for. A few things worth knowing before your first session. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — the movements are slow and gentle, you set your own pace, and many can be done seated if standing is hard. Second, there's nothing to buy and nothing to keep up with — wear comfortable clothes and flat, flexible shoes, and simply follow along. Third, all ages and abilities really are welcome — ask whether there's a dedicated beginners or all-levels class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most studios are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first tai chi class at Tribe Wellness LLC
Nervous about walking into a tai chi class for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good instructors expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a gentle warm-up, then learning a few slow movements of the form, step by step — no pressure to get it perfect, and you can rest or sit whenever you need to. What to wear: loose, comfortable clothing you can move in, and flat, flexible shoes (some studios practice in socks or bare feet). What to bring: water, and that's about it — there's no equipment to buy. Arrive a few minutes early to say hello to the instructor and mention it's your first class. It comes together faster than you'd think — most people feel far more at ease by their second or third visit.
