SENIOR HEALTH INITIATIVES
The YMCA of Broward County, in partnership with the Healthy Aging Regional Collaborative, proudly offers evidence – based programs to seniors in Broward County. Programs are taught at our YMCA Family Centers and at community partner sites throughout the County. We offer a variety of exercise and health workshops to promote health living for all seniors in our community. Classes are highly participative, where mutual support and success help build confidence. Older adults at all fitness levels will benefit from our exercise programs to sustain active, energized and empowered lives!
I rarely use my walker now. The class is so much fun!
I'm getting older so I have to take all the classes I can.(103 year old participant)
The stretching part of the class has helped me reach items in my cabinets that I couldn't reach before starting the program.
This class saved my life!
Thanks to EnhanceFitness, I am breathing much better and don't need my inhaler during the class.
Many surprises have come about in my physical strength and endurance . I can drive a golf ball farther, it takes little effort to stand from a sitting position. Wow!
When I look in the mirror, I look prettier!
I find it a joy to come to these classes. My body and mind have improved more than I expected.
It makes me lighter in my walk. I find I can raise my hands to my back much farther.
I no longer have difficulty climbing stairs or dancing. Now I can go up the stairs without discomfort and dance for hours!
