Active Older Adults is a safe, fun and educational fitness program designed specifically to the social and physical needs of men and women over the age of 50. The class combines aerobic activity, stretching, and toning exercises. It also provided health education specific to seniors as well as a social setting to keep elders keep connected to one another, their YMCA and the larger community. It is a fun experience for the spirit, mind and body of the young at heart.

Active Older Adults takes place on Wednesdays and Fridays from 9:00-10:00 AM at our Bellows Falls facility.
