Benefits of Low-Impact Exercise for Wellbeing 🌿

Low-impact exercise classes like Be Active offer numerous health benefits while being gentle on your joints. These sessions are ideal for those who want to maintain an active lifestyle without the strain of high-intensity workouts.

Regular participation in gentle exercise classes can:

• Improve strength and muscle tone through controlled movements with light resistance
• Enhance balance and coordination, reducing the risk of falls
• Increase flexibility and joint mobility for better everyday movement
• Boost cardiovascular health in a manageable, sustainable way
• Support mental wellbeing through endorphin release and social connection

The social aspect of group fitness classes is particularly valuable. The Wednesday cuppa provides a wonderful opportunity to connect with others in your community, combating isolation while improving your physical health.
