Exercise for seniors

We organise a wide range of physical activities for seniors. Classes are available for beginners and regular enthusiasts alike. You can choose the group that suits you best, depending on your level of fitness, health and previous experience. The use of an assistive device is not a barrier to participation. Your own assistant can join you if necessary.

All classes have one thing in common: safe exercise in a supportive atmosphere, without forgetting recreation and making new friends. The aim is to maintain and improve musculoskeletal fitness, without forgetting recreation and making new friends. The instructors are professionals in the field of exercise.

Brisk and varied

This level of exercise is for you if you want to improve your fitness with a variety of activities. Minor mobility limitations are no barrier to participating in brisk and varied classes, as long as you can perform the movements independently and safely, both standing and on the floor.

You can be a beginner or a more experienced enthusiast, as the instructor will give you clear instructions from easy to more challenging movements.

Exhausting and effective

This level of exercise is for you if you are looking for a heart rate boost, increased muscle strength and mobility. This high intensity class is for you if you feel fit and can move smoothly at a brisk pace.

You have previous experience of exercise, but no sporting background is required. The instructor will take new participants into account and provide alternative movements for newcomers.
