Our Senior Fitness Community is Growing!

Our Fitness Program for low-income seniors in Brooklyn started out humbly. We had two regular clients who would come every week and every now and again a curious resident would stop in to watch. But as time has gone by word of mouth has spread, friends are telling friends, and our seniors can tell that this Fitness Class is here to stay and more and more are coming.

Our seniors are looking good and feeling good, and many have said that they are happy this class exists, as in the coming months as it gets colder many of them will have a harder time going outside to get exercise. As the weather gets colder and meaner, a slippery sidewalk will discourage many from leaving the house to take a healthy walk around the neighborhood. Luckily, they will have their weekly fitness class to keep them active.
