Joy Howell has recently attended training through Dr Paul Lam's Tai Chi for Health Institute and has been practicing Tai Chi for many years.
Joy will be leading the classes as a volunteer for the MLHD.
MLHD supports volunteers across a number of communities to provide low cost exercise opportunities.
"Tai Chi is a great way to improve your balance and flexibility in a friendly, social setting. Everyone is welcome to come and join in," Joy said.
The program aims to improve access to safe physical activity, especially for older adults living in rural communities.
"We know the importance of regular physical activity to maintain good health and this is a great chance for community members to take part in a low cost activity locally," MLHD Health Promotion Officer, Barb Manwaring said.
Sessions will run weekly on Saturday at 10.30am at the Boorowa Ex-Services Club.
