About us
Join us at the Life Enrichment Center for an array of classes, including painting (oils, acrylics, watercolors, pastels), drawing, creative writing, air-dry clay, tai chi, mah jong, bridge, and much more!
The Life Enrichment Center is located in the quaint north Tampa neighborhood of Forest Hills at 9704 North Boulevard, Tampa 33612. Our contact information is (813) 932-0241 or info@lectampa.org.
Our attendees are active adults of all ages (primarily 50+). Our professional instructors work with participants at all skill levels, so everyone is welcome and included. Classes are small and one-on-one attention is provided.
This is a fun place, with friendly people who have similar interests. There is no other place like us in Tampa!
As our society continues to age and lives longer, organizations like ours are becoming even more important. Research indicates that baby boomers are going to be looking for activities that challenge and stimulate them and enable them to explore creative options for which they have not previously had time. This is exactly what the Life Enrichment Center has been about since its inception in 1980 – offering innovative classes and activities that provide adults with the opportunity to continue to learn and grow.
We would love to have you join our group of adults and active seniors!

Join Dr. Marianne Chen’s weekly Yang Style Tai Chi class to enjoy gentle, non-strenuous exercise that helps improve balance, muscle strength, stamina, and bone density. It also reduces blood pressure, stress, and joint pain.
Tai Chi is low impact and gentle, putting minimal stress on muscles and joints. It is self-paced and suitable for all ages to learn and practice. Yang Style is the most popular form of Tai Chi practiced today. It is characterized by gentle, circular, and open movements in a slow, flowing form. Yang Style allows people of all ages and fitness levels to safely exercise and improve their health.
Characterized by slow, rhythmic movements and deep breathing, Tai Chi is often called “moving meditation.” The movements are fluid, circular, and slow. Each posture flows into the next without pause, ensuring the body is in constant motion. Tai Chi aims to achieve harmony between the body and mind with postures that are equally balanced between yin and yang.
Tai Chi is so well-loved because it helps individuals remain present in the moment and recharge their mind and body. The slow, graceful movements help people step back from their fast-paced life to find inner quiet and serenity. It loosens the mind and body from the tensions of stress, so you can fully relax in the moment.
