Benefits of Senior Strength and Balance Training
Regular strength and balance training is essential for maintaining independence and quality of life as we age. These exercises can help:
- Reduce the risk of falls
- Maintain bone density
- Improve posture and flexibility
- Support joint health
- Boost confidence in daily movements
Our classes provide a supportive environment where exercises are tailored to your ability. The music component not only makes the session more enjoyable but also helps with rhythm and timing—important elements for improving coordination.
Many participants report improvements in their ability to perform everyday tasks like getting in and out of chairs, climbing stairs, and carrying shopping after just a few weeks of regular attendance.
The small class size ensures you receive personalised attention and proper technique guidance, making this an ideal option for those new to exercise or returning after a break.
Join our friendly community at Te Puru Centre and take a positive step toward better strength, balance, and overall wellbeing.
