Eligibility Criteria
Other Criteria:
Minimum Age: 55 yrs
Criteria:
  • Available for adults 55+ who wish to improve their health and may not be able to participate in the traditional group programs due to their mobility restrictions, chronic disease, confidence, health issues or other reasons.

    Disclaimer: The SMART program is designed so that any participant can attend any of the sites if most convenient for them as it can be modified for all different levels. These intensities are simply guidelines for the average participant attending the class. Any participant has the opportunity to sit for the entire class for any. All instructors offer the option of sitting to each of the participants each class. We never want to put limits on any participants and we believe that if a participant walks into the class they should be able to exercise standing or at least do some of the exercises standing. SMART classes always offer chairs to be used a base of support or for someone to sit in for either portions of the class or the entire class if that is how they feel most comfortable exercising.
