Participants must:

• be over 65 years of age;
• not undertaking more than 150 minutes of planned exercise each week;
• not currently attending Optimum Exercise Physiology;
• not receiving Commonwealth Homes Care Package funding.

What's included:

• 1 x pre-exercise screening
• 1 x pre-assessment
• 12 x 1-hour sessions - you will have an individual program developed for you
• 1 x post-assessment

What is the cost?
Pre-assessment - $18.50

Who runs the classes?
Each class will be run by a university qualified Accredited Exercise Physiologist . 
The benefits of attending a class run by an accredited exercise professional include:

• Exercises that are better targeted to your needs;
• Ongoing health and advice to help you stay active;
• Referral pathways to other health professionals or services that may suit your needs if appropriate/needed.
