Rediscovering Movement: engaging exercise again
Rediscovering Movement
Do you feel stuck? You know exercise is good for your health. Your health provider reminds you ever visit. But when you try to start, it just doesn’t work. The group exercise classes just move too fast. They expect you to do things that your body just can’t do. And you really don’t feel like you belong in a class for seniors. You feel embarrassed. You feel defeated and you don’t return. Sound familiar? You are not alone. This class is for those 30 to 50 year olds who need to rediscover movement.
Break the cycle
Many of our participants have not been able to be active for years. While other are recovering from a recent change in function due to surgery, trauma or medical illness. Some individuals have chronic life long challenges that do not allow them to exercise at an intense level. Rediscovering Movement is designed to slowly reintroducing exercise into your life. We start slowly and progress gradually. This is a group exercise class that is the right pace for you to be successful.
We meet you at your level of ability
You only need to desire to restore, sustain or build on your ability to be active. We will meet you at your level of ability and fitness. We will modify any activity so that you can successfully participate in physical activity and live your best life. Participants realize that when they are given the right support and modifications they are capable of be active and improving their health and quality of life.
Restoring function
We work to restore function. Together they gain strength, endurance and confidence in their independence. In addition to improved function and decreased pain, they also find a wonder community of friends.AT. STAR you will acceptance with no judgement in a safe supportive environment. Our goal is to have everyone meet the recommended level of weekly physical activity for a healthy life.
