A fun and functional class

Movement Medicine is a fun and functional class provided in the sunny Habit Health physiotherapy rehabilitation gym (Lower Queen Street Medical Centre).

What to expect

This class is more challenging than our ‘Senior Fit’ class and includes standing balance and mat work exercise.

This class will keep you functionally fit, resilient and strong for gardening, running after grandkids, golfing, tramping, walking the dog and whatever it is that you love to do.

• We focus on balance and strength for your whole body.
• We use bands, balls and weights.

The class is provided by an experienced rehabilitation coach or physiotherapist. If you have specific physical needs or prior injury you would like us to consider, please write this down or email it to us. In some cases (not all), an individual session with the class instructor will be required so that we can safely support you while taking your previous medical history into account.

Vanilla Bean Café is just downstairs and participants enjoy a rewarding cuppa after class.

Who can join

Open to anyone aged 65 years or older (55 years or older for Māori and Pasifika), or anyone at an increased risk of falling, if they can safely participate in the class.

What to bring and wear

Just come along in comfortable clothing.
