Starts January 6th
Join us in person or over Zoom for a five-week program that focuses on wellness and exercise for seniors. Each week we’ll guide participants through a fun fitness or wellness activity. In person space will be limited to nine people, but feel free to join us from home via Zoom if you can’t secure a spot or you don’t feel comfortable coming in. Some events will be exclusively on Zoom.
Week 1: Wellness Trivia
- Test your knowledge with questions about exercise and nutrition!
Week 2: Nutrition Intervention
- A participant-driven discussion on the topic of meal planning and cooking healthy foods.
Week 3: Exercise Bingo
- Each participant will make a unique card out of all the square options containing different exercises.
- If your exercise is called, get up and do it!
- First one to get 5 in a row wins!
Week 4: Deck of Cards
- Each card has a suit. Each suit has a designated exercise. The number on the card is how many reps of the exercise you do.
- Shuffle the deck and draw cards.
- The whole group participates together!
Week 5: Stretching
- Join us for a relaxing class of stretching, whether you have tight muscles or just want to increase your flexibility and balance!
