Gentle Balance and Strength Class | Green Island SAYGO

Gentle Balance and Strength Class for Older Adults

Whether you're new to exercise or just want to take things easy, this class is a welcoming place to start. Held at St. Margaret Presbyterian Church in Green Island, Dunedin, our Steady As You Go sessions offer gentle, physiotherapy-based exercises to build strength and balance. These one-hour classes include seated, standing, and walking activities in a supportive group setting, perfect for those with limited mobility or who feel unsure about physical activities.

Geared towards older adults, the programme helps improve everyday mobility and reduces the risk of falls through simple movements that strengthen muscles around ankles, knees, and hips. You'll also enjoy the social side, making connections with others while boosting confidence in your posture and movement. Regular attendance can lead to better coordination and greater ease with daily tasks like climbing stairs or carrying groceries.
