Apart from aerobics, the club often hosts social outings, subsidized bus trips, or guest speakers, adding variety to the weekly meetups. For many over-50s in Nelson, this is more than just an activity—it's a chance to share laughs, stories, and support with like-minded folks. No special gear or prior experience is needed; just come along with a positive attitude and a desire to connect. 🏃‍♀️
