HANCI - Services - Let's Get Physical
Through the "Let's Get Physical" program, older adults meet on Saturday mornings for light exercise and friendship. Several kinds of physical activities will be offered, including stair walking, walking in the park, yoga and dance.
The Health Association of Niagara County Inc. and its partner organizations are looking for seniors, age 60 and older, to take part in the program. Sessions run from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. on Saturdays at HANCI, 1302 Main Street.
"Let's Get Physical" is based on the Adult Health and Development Program created by the University of Maryland in the 1970s. Since then, similar programs have helped to reduce chronic illness in communities across the country. Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Western New York and the Niagara County Office for the Aging are providing funding for the Niagara County program.
Anyone age 60 or older who wants to sign up for this free program may call Rev. Jimmy Rowe at (716) 285-8224.
