| Let's Have a Ball (A Fun-Filled Workout for Older Adults Using a Ball) |
| This activity session will provide the student with an exciting workout for older adults, incorporating the use of a ball. The possibilities of working with a ball in a group fitness class are endless. You will learn how to use the ball to improve power, strength, coordination, balance, and have a ball doing it! Teaching for thirty-five years and the owner of a successful fitness consulting business, Elliott will demonstrate that this activity can be done in a chair as well. Older adults like to play too!. |
