There is a difference between “physical activity” and “exercise”.

  • Physical activity is any movement of your body
  • Exercise is physical activity with a specific intensity and duration to improve or maintain fitness. Doing a combination of both can help you achieve these benefits

Exercise is important for people of all ages! Exercising provides a myriad of benefits for your physical health, mental health and lifestyle:

  • Physical health:

– Feel stronger and more athletic

– Prevent and manage many health problems that come with age

– Maintain and improve brain health and a healthy weight

  • Mental health:

– Improve the quality of your sleep

– Manage stress and improve mental health

– Improve overall feelings of wellbeing

  • Lifestyle

– Maintain your mobility and independence

– Reduce your risk of falling by maintaining and improving your balance

– Continue to enjoy your leisure activities

To help you achieve your fitness goals and improve your health, I’m happy to announce that I will be offering a FREE chair exercise class every Friday starting this month! This class is completely free and operates on a drop-in basis, so no need to register or commit to several classes. Please see below for more details.
