Movement & Mobility for Seniors

Whether it’s by recovering from an old injury or by simply walking or climbing stairs, many seniors may find themselves in need of assistance when performing activities of daily living. A decrease in physical activity weakens muscles and stiffens joints and as we age, this may hamper our mobility and affect our independence.

Staying active is the best way to keep your body strong and your mind engaged at whatever stage in your life. Seniors fitness classes are here for older adults who want to increase their fitness levels, build their muscle strength and improve their balance so they can stay healthy, feel less stress and make the most of their golden years.

Functional fitness training is an exercise program designed to be low-impact and focuses on functional exercises that can aid you as you go about performing daily tasks and perform everyday activities.

Movement & Mobility Classes for Seniors are only available in our Toa Payoh Fitness Studio.
