Senior residents registered in Torrevieja and the urban district of La Mata, both of which are home to large communities of UK and German expats, are being encouraged to take part in new low-intensity exercise classes aimed at improving quality of life.

 

The Zumba and dance course has been specifically designed to meet anatomical, physiological and psychological needs of older adults. Classes will be held at Torrevieja's Municipal Leisure Centre on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10am to 11am and at the La Mata multi-sports court on Mondays and Fridays from 10am to 11am. The course lasts a total of 84 hours and runs from now until April 15.

 

The benefits of yoga as exercise are well known, and over time with an experienced teacher can help mature adults improve their flexibility, balance and strength and have a positive impact on mental well-being.

 

The yoga classes will be held at the Casa de la Tercera Edad de San Pascual in Torrevieja on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 9am until 12 noon over the next couple of months, totalling 48 hours.

 

To find out more or book a class, visit the Concejalía de Gente Mayor in Calle Maldonado, Torrevieja or call 965 074 310.
