FaDs: Inclusive Fitness for Adults with Disabilities

FaDs: Fitness for Adults with Disabilities in Halswell

FaDs is a supportive fitness class for older adults with disabilities, held at South West Baptist Church on Balcairn Street in Halswell, Christchurch. It offers a gentle way to stay active with warm-up exercises, strength and balance training, circuit activities, and a cool down. You can join if you have limited mobility and use walking aids, or if you have reasonable mobility and walk on your own. Everyone takes part at their own pace in this calm setting.

These sessions help build strength and balance, which supports better everyday movement. They also bring people together for a sense of community and connection. Adaptive fitness classes like this one make physical activity accessible across New Zealand, focusing on what you can do to feel more confident and independent.
