ACTIVE ADULTS & SENIORS
Senior Stretch • AGES 50 AND UP Most exercise classes include stretching during warmup and cool down, but what about an entire class dedicated to this important activity? Stretching is vital for seniors and allows for greater movement in joints while improving overall posture in addition to releasing muscle tension and soreness, reducing the risk of injury. It also may help increase circulation, muscle control and improve balance and coordination. This 30-minute class, taught by Cecilia Floyd-Carruthers, covers stretching exercises from head to toe in a seated position as well as standing, using a chair for balance. Please bring water for hydration and wear gym shoes with good support. Intermediate students need to bring their own mat. The instructor will determine if you are ready to be upgraded to intermediate status. In order to participate in the Senior Stretch class, you must be mobile and able to support yourself without assistance.
