Get Back To Doing Things Like You Used To
How to maintain your independence, increase your quality of life, and age gracefully by getting your body to function the way you want it to.
Your lower body is the key to unlocking a better quality of life.
Think of your body like a house: it’s only as good as it’s foundation. If the foundation starts to deteriorate, the whole structure becomes unreliable.
Your lower body is that foundation.
It’s the base of support for all your daily movements from walking and sitting to climbing stairs, gardening, and playing with the grandkids. It can be shaky and unstable or strong and secure—it all depends on how you look after it.
Taught by certified fitness instructor, Maria Raitt, the “Gentle Lower Body Strengthening” Class focuses on exercises for your legs, back and hips so you can do day-to-day activities with ease.
Make everyday tasks easier & maintain your independence with “Gentle Lower Body Strengthening”
Specifically designed for those with limited mobility, strength or endurance, this class provides easy, impact-free exercises to gently build your strength—in just 30 minutes a day.
To make it even more gentle on your body most exercises use a chair for additional support that reduces the risk of injury.

"Thank you SO much! I’m actually starting to feel as young as I think I am lol. It’s all very easy on the body, but also very effective! I could do all of the exercises and I loved that it was almost all done with a chair. I’m stronger, more flexible, and am no longer holding myself back because things are too difficult or painful."

"I was embarrassed. I couldn’t do basic things. I was getting worried that my kids wouldn’t want to let me continue to live independently. I was willing to try or do anything. I started very slow, doing the modified exercises. But over time I’ve gotten so much better. I’m now at the point that I CAN do those basic things. And that’s just incredible. I truly can’t describe the relief I feel."

"Okay, so I didn’t realize how important the lower body was before. I was pretty shaky on my feet, had a few tumbles… I just thought that was all a part of getting older. But this class basically proved that wasn’t true. I’ve re-taken it a few times and the difference is really something! Now, my legs are a lot stronger, I can bend easier, and I’m not falling or even stumbling."

How Gentle Lower Body Strengthening helps improve all aspects of daily living:
A gentle, beginner’s class for people of all abilities to regain strength & mobility.
1. Builds Strength & Endurance
Strength training activates our muscle fibers which causes them to grow. By increasing our lower body muscle, we have more strength to be able to stand longer, get up and down on chairs easier, and even climb stairs better.
2. Improves Mobility
Getting from place to place depends almost entirely on your lower body. By keeping those muscles strong it allows you to move easier, with less pain and fewer restrictions so you can walk further, last longer and take less time to get there.
3. Improves Balance & Agility For Reduced Risk Of Falling
Your entire body is stabilized by your lower body. By strengthening these large muscle groups you’ll have more stability for better balance which allows you to move more freely without falling while being nimble enough to catch yourself if you do stumble.
4. Maintains Bone Density
Our bones are living tissues that change in response to the forces put on it. By strength training, our bones adapt by building more bone and becoming denser which reduces the risk of bone fractures and breaks.
5. Increases Flexibility And Range Of Motion
These gentle exercises release the tension in your muscles, allowing them to reach further and stretch more so you can bend over to put on your shoes, walk with a smoother, unrestricted gait, and move with greater confidence.
6. Maintain Independence In Performing Activities Of Daily Life
When you put all these benefits together, what you get is a better ability to maintain your independence and function better day-to-day. Whether you love golf or gardening, or you just want to be able to take the stairs, lower body strength training will let you enjoy your hobbies again and get your life back.
