Our Exercises for Fun classes on Mondays are now including SQUATS. We can’t avoid squatting in our daily life, e.g. getting out of a low chair, or gardening, or getting up from the toilet. Try to find time to take a look at this month's 'Exercise of the Month' video on doing squats safely:- Have fun, and keep moving.

With strong attendances continuing, Exercises for Fun is all about staying active, improving fitness, and sharing some fun and good company as we go. Special thanks this month go to Graeme Greed - U3A Benalla's 'sound equipment ' guru - for working with Elly to improve the sound quality of the music played during our session. 'Back Flare-Up?' is the topic of May's 'Exercise of the Month' selected from the wonderful 'Be Mobile Physiotherapists' YouTube site - 'Do These 6 Gentle Exercises' (Over 55's).' Keep moving and have fun!

It can improve our mood too. Meeting TimesExercises for Fun is held weekly in the main hall at the Benalla Senior Citizens Community Centre on Monday mornings from 9.30 to 11 am.
