Each community has varying types of classes available for their residents.
The Village at Northridge
Arthritis Foundation Exercise Program is designed specifically for people with arthritis (osteoarthritis, rheumatoid, fibromyalgia, osteoporosis, gout, bursitis, spinal stenosis, etc.), using activities to:
- help increase joint flexibility and range of motion
- help maintain muscle strength
- help promote comfort and reduce pain
Our classes are available to fit participants’ fitness level – seated or standing. Participants in the class have experienced benefits such as increased functional ability, increased self-care behaviors, decreased pain and depression. This class is the only one open to the general public for a nominal fee.
Balanced Body (Fall Prevention): We all need to improve our balance. This supervised class will help seniors build awareness in their bodies and help prevent a fall, increase muscle strength and endurance through short, repetitive routines. Movement in various planes of motion is encouraged, depending on ability. The repetition of the exercises and movements help strengthen muscles that have become inactive.
Horizons at Calabasas
Monte Vista Grove Homes
Fun Fitness Mix: This full body, low impact workout is designed for seniors of all levels of mobility and awareness. In this class, students are led through a series of easy-to-follow routines. Each routine can be performed in a chair, while more advanced moves can be practiced with a walker or standing up. The program takes each participant through every muscle group of their body, with simple yet challenging exercises to improve eye/hand coordination, bone/muscle strength, flexibility, circulation and balance.
Class is not open to the public.
