Exercise for Strength and Balance
Come and meet Mary in person, ask questions, and thank her for sharing her skills and wisdom with the Ashby Village community. Refreshments will be served after the class.
Exercises to help with strength and balance is important for all of us as we age and lose muscle mass. Keeping strong and maintaining good balance is also one of a number of ways to help in avoiding falls, another challenge for older adults. This class will introduce you to specific exercises that promote strength and good balance. It is suitable for all ages and an excellent introduction to basic strength and mobility exercises.
