In partnership with the City of London, the CCAA is pleased to announce a new exercise program geared toward enhancing the health and well-being of community-based people aged 55+. These 10-to12-week programs at Medway Community Centre, Earl Nichols Arena and Carling Heights Optimist Community Centre in London, Ontario are led by CCAA certified instructors and consist of 60-minute group activity classes two or three times per week, designed to introduce and practice meaningful exercises that will enhance mobility and function. All sessions include exercises that target strength, cardiovascular conditioning, mobility, and balance.
Participants in these partnership classes will experience the added benefit of completing a comprehensive functional fitness assessment administered by CCAA staff and students. The assessment measures cardiovascular fitness, strength, flexibility, agility, balance and overall vitality. Fitness assessments will occur at the beginning and at the end of the session, allowing change in functional fitness over time to be tracked.
Registration for winter sessions is now open! Sign up today to avoid disappointment.
