On the Move is an evidence based, progressive class designed to increase mobility in older adults. Today was class #21 of #24, and we have truly progressed through the program. During our 1 hour session today, we warmed up as usual, focusing on preparing the muscles used for walking. The walking patterns come next, featuring dynamic patterns, speed changes, direction changes, and lots of fun! We set a new class record of 28 minutes of consistent walking while completing the challenges created by the cone patterns. This program is to be completed in a safe and comfortable way, so participants break if they need it. We finish the class with a couple of sets of strength exercises and a cool down with stretches. If you would like more information, let me know and I will point you in the right direction!
I removed the sound from the video because I was singing, and nobody needs to hear that! 🤣
Have a great weekend!!

SAIL can benefit older adults, and meet them exactly where they are on their journey! Each exercise can be modified from a standing exercise to a seated exercise, creating an environment of support and encouragement! Check everyone out from Wednesday's SAIL class at Caroline Senior Center !

Each class of On the Move at Amy Lynn Ferris Adult Activity Center begins with a short warm-up, then we get into our walking patterns. Today we started with just walking and getting loose, then some pom-poms for fun, and once those went away, the playground balls came out for a time!

This week has been a "break week" separating the last session of SAIL, and the new SAIL session that begins on Monday, April 20th!
However, at the Amy Lynn Ferris Adult Activity Center we have still been On the Move! This program is designed to increase mobility for older adults, and we have a blast while doing it! A few participants had other obligations today, but those of us that were there played with some pom-poms during our Walking Patterns portion! Sound interesting? Contact Rosemarie at the center for more information! As always, thank you to Upper Shore Aging, Inc for sponsoring these evidence based exercise programs, making them FREE for the seniors!!!
Next week new SAIL sessions begin in Denton at the Caroline Senior Center and at the Federalsburg Senior Center, while we stay On the Move in Chestertown on Tuesday and Thursday! Let's go!!!!!🚶🏻🚶🏿‍♀️🚶🏼‍♂️🚶🏻‍♀️

The Amy Lynn Ferris Adult Activity Center hosts On The Move on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. The On the Move program is a 12-week, evidence-based, group exercise initiative designed for older adults to improve mobility. On the Move was developed at the University of Pittsburgh by physical therapists. Each of the 24 classes feature a warm-up (focused on the muscles used for walking), walking (using cones to create various patterns), stepping, strength, and a cool down with stretching. Pictured below are the participants working on partner stepping. On the Move is another evidence based class provided for free to older adults by Upper Shore Aging, Inc
Prior registration is required, but once you are in, we have a wonderful time working to get back to "Master Walker" status. If you have interest, contact Rosemarie at the Amy Lynn Ferris Senior Center in Chestertown .
