Healthy Aging Essentials Virtual Education and Fitness Series
HAE/FIT is a unique Physical-Therapist led community health and wellness course. Over the eight-week series, participants will learn how to make lifestyle modifications, better nutritional decisions and how to use regular exercise to prevent falls, support healthy aging and a better quality of life. Each session starts with a topic of interest, a motivational quote and then moves into a forty-minute workout that blends aerobic exercise, functional strengthening, postural and core stability, flexibility training and balance reeducation. Classes are fun, engaging, but most importantly, effective.
While activities modifications will be offered to scale activities, participants who choose to participate in HAE/FIT should at minimum be able to rise to stand safely from a chair to supported or unsupported standing OR have a companion present to assist with this activity as needed. The ideal participant is over 60, interested in taking charge of their own health and able to walk at least at a household level.
Class size will be limited to 15 participants per session to allow for individual attention and adequate supervision.

Week One: Physical Activity and Healthy Aging
Week Two: Importance of Nutrition and Hydration
Week Three: Heart and Lung Health
Week Four: Muscle, Bone and Joint Health
