Program details

This session will introduce participants to gentle and some challenging stretching and balance movements to help improve overall flexibility and stability.  Stretching can be beneficial for muscle health, injury prevention and joint range of movement. Balance exercises can benefit us by giving us increased stability and help prevent falls. This session includes a short relaxation session to finish.
