Exercise for Seniors

Exercise for Seniors

Exercise for Seniors, run by the City of Monash, offers friendly and accessible fitness classes designed to help older adults stay active, confident, and healthy. The program caters to all fitness levels—from people who are just getting back into exercise to those who are already active. Classes are led by qualified instructors who create a safe, supportive environment where you can move at your own pace.

These sessions can help improve your strength, balance, and flexibility, which are important for preventing falls and maintaining independence as you age. Regular physical activity also supports heart health, boosts energy, and helps keep your joints moving comfortably. Just as importantly, exercise benefits your mental wellbeing by reducing stress, lifting your mood, and helping you think clearly.

The social atmosphere is a big part of what makes these classes enjoyable. Attending regularly gives you the chance to meet new people, build friendships, and feel connected to your community—all key aspects of healthy ageing.

Whether you're beginning your fitness journey or looking for a gentle way to stay active, Exercise for Seniors offers a fun and welcoming path to better physical, emotional, and social health
