Our Functional Mobility Fitness program is designed for adults looking to enhance their movement quality and improve overall physical performance. This class focuses on exercises that promote joint mobility, flexibility, and core stability through functional movements that mimic everyday activities. Participants will engage in dynamic stretching, balance training, and strength-building exercises, all aimed at increasing range of motion and reducing the risk of injury. Suitable for all fitness levels, this program helps adults maintain independence, improve posture, and feel more comfortable in their daily lives. Join us to move better, feel stronger, and enhance your quality of life!

Dementia-friendly walking groups for social connections have been shown to improve health, mood, sleep, and cognitive functioning in older adults.

This group will walk the track twice a week for six weeks and count their laps.  It is a great way to socialize and find support within a group.

Pedaling for Parkinson’s is a community-based cycling program designed to improve the quality of life for individuals living with Parkinson’s disease. Led by certified instructors, this class uses stationary bikes to help participants build strength, endurance, and coordination in a safe and supportive environment.

Research shows that forced, high-cadence cycling can reduce Parkinson’s symptoms by improving motor function and overall well-being. Each session includes a warm-up, guided cycling intervals, and a cool-down, all tailored to individual abilities.
