Move to Improve will focus on feeling stronger and more confident with everyday movement. This class incorporates strength, mobility and balance training. Exercises are first done in a seated position then transition to standing. This workout includes the five fundamental human movements (push, pull, hinge, squat & loaded carry) to support activities of daily living. Additional exercises will be incorporated to help improve balance through weight shifting, transferring and center of gravity management

Equipment: small hand weights or water bottles (we will show both).

Fitness instruction for this program was recorded in advance.
