Steady As You Go Gentle Exercise Class in Ashburton

In a typical Steady As You Go session at the RSA in Ashburton, you'll start with simple warm-ups and move into gentle exercises that focus on building strength and balance. This class draws from the Otago Exercise Programme to help older adults improve stability and confidence in their movements. It's geared towards those with limited mobility, like people using walking aids or feeling unsure about physical activities, as well as those with reasonable mobility who want to prevent falls.

Participants often notice better overall strength and a reduced risk of falls after joining regularly. The friendly atmosphere makes it easy to connect with others while working on these important skills. It's a supportive spot for older adults to gain more assurance in daily activities.
