POSITIVE AGING POST 1.
The Canadian Centre for Activity and Aging (University of Western Ontario) designs proven and effective programs appropriate for the over 55s. We have funding to train a Seniors Fitness Instructor (Christine Heap) to deliver the Get Fit for Active Living (GFAL) program. This is an 8 week education and exercise program to motivate older adults to engage in a more active lifestyle and maintain their functional mobility and independence. Where this course is charged it costs $150 participant. We will offer it FREE. Christine's training will be in late April, so we'll announce more details after that date. In the meantime, for a flavour of this program, here's a link to three short videos (total runtime about 15 minutes)
