Why exercise? Regular physical activity and exercise are important to the physical and mental health of almost everyone, including older adults. Staying physically active and exercising regularly can produce long-term health benefits and even improve health for some older people who already have diseases and disabilities. It can increase energy, enhance mood, promote better sleep and is a key component of a healthy lifestyle. If done on a regular basis it can have many long term benefits including:

Assist with weight loss
Reduce stress, anxiety & depression
Helps to control blood sugar levels

What if I have a health condition or are recovering from an illness? Don’t assume it will stop you from being active altogether. It may be more important than ever to exercise to help you to get better. Research has shown that if you keep moving with light exercise, it can help to keep your joints working well and lessen pain. If you can’t move around easily, it’s even more important to try to exercise. It can improve your whole outlook on life. However, if you’ve not done much physical activity for a while, you may want to get the all-clear from a GP before starting. What do I need to bring to the class? You should wear loose, comfortable clothing and keep some water handy. REMEMBER…You’re never too old to exercise!
