Everyday, we offer exercise at the VNSNY CHOICE Adult Day Center. We do something different everyday to keep our members interested. From yoga to stretching to chair dancing to Wii to DJ dance parties, we keep our members involved and moving to the best of their abilities. Fun is also a key ingredient to keeping them engaged – the more they laugh, the more they move! During our exercise group yesterday, members talked about why they like exercising here at the center – interesting thoughts…
- We encourage each other to do better!
- At home, I only do a few repetitions. Here, someone is counting and that motivates me to do more reps.
- When I exercise at the center, I know I’ll sleep better at night
- When I’m home, I eat, lay in bed and sleep. When I come to the center, I’m sitting up, moving around all day and you wake me up!
