Are you looking to:

  • Improve your strength and mobility
  • Continue living in your home/community independently
  • Learn more about how to maintain/improve your health from experienced health professionals
  • Meet new people, make new connections
  • Be proactive about your health


Then Seniors in Motion is the right fit for you!


Seniors in Motion is a free 12-session group program that focuses on exercise and health education for seniors. Seniors in Motion was designed to improve quality of life, and support seniors who want to age in place, through improved physical health and social connection.  Past participants have shown “significant improvements in strength, endurance, social connectivity”, as well as improvements in “systolic and diastolic blood pressure, balance and mobility, and confidence in their mobility” (Brown and Russell, 2022).
