Paeroa Community Tap and Fitness Sessions

Tap and Fitness for Everyone

In the welcoming heart of Paeroa, the Tapsit program brings together locals for a morning of gentle movement and social connection. Picture a friendly group gathered in a comfortable space, chairs arranged for easy participation, where laughter and encouragement fill the air. This weekly Wednesday activity is designed for those aged 65 and over, offering a supportive environment to stay active and engaged with the community.

The session kicks off at 9am with the Tapsit program, a seated tap exercise that gets toes tapping and energy flowing without the need for standing. At 9:15am, it transitions into a fun Strength and Balance class, wrapping up at 10am. Right after, from 10am to 11am, join the Theatrecraft class for creative expression through theatre-inspired activities. Then, from 11am to noon, the Senior Belles Ballet provides graceful, adapted ballet moves suitable for all abilities. Each segment lasts about 60 minutes, making it easy to dip in or stay for the full morning.

At just $4, this covers the Tapsit and Strength & Balance programs, keeping it affordable for regular attendance. No special equipment is required—just comfortable clothing and a positive spirit. The focus here is on building strength, improving balance, and fostering friendships, all while enjoying the camaraderie of like-minded neighbours. It's a fantastic way to combat isolation, boost wellbeing, and contribute to Paeroa's vibrant senior community. Whether you're new to exercise or looking to add some joy to your routine, these sessions welcome everyone ready to move and connect. 💃🩰
