The Power of Group Exercise for Older Adults
Staying active as we age is essential—but exercising in a group can offer benefits beyond just physical fitness. Group exercise classes provide a fun, supportive environment where older adults can improve strength, balance, and overall health while connecting with others.
Key benefits include:
Improved strength and mobility: Classes focus on safe, functional movements that help with daily activities.
Better balance and fall prevention: Many group exercises target core stability and coordination.
