Join Kassandra for this fun and accessible FITNESS class every Tuesday at 10am!
This low-impact cardiovascular fitness class is inspired by rehabilitative exercises, aerobics, Pilates, and a little bit of ballet barre technique – all getting you to dance along to the beat of classic songs! Start with warming up your joints, then build up your physical and cardiovascular endurance (standing with the support of your chair, or seated). We will work through strengthening major muscle groups using our body weight, training our balance, and improving our posture – all while sharpening our memory with movement sequences – and finish with a nice stretch.

Memory changes with age, but the brain can stay sharp with the right exercises. This interactive workshop focuses on neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to adapt and strengthen over time. Participants will practice proven memory-boosting techniques, including recall exercises, association strategies, and attention-training activities.

The session will also cover simple lifestyle habits that support cognitive function, such as sleep, exercise, nutrition, and mental stimulation. Through guided exercises and hands-on practice, seniors will leave with easy-to-use tools to enhance memory, improve focus, and stay mentally active in daily life.

The session includes an interactive discussion on recognizing symptoms, creating a brain health action plan, and exploring caregiver support options.
