Youthful Hearts 50+ exercise classes are held in Marin County, California at the Margaret Todd Senior Center in Novato, and also on Zoom. Unfortunately, after 26 years, I’m no longer teaching at the San Rafael Community Center. Currently, my classes are meeting on Zoom on Mondays and Thursdays each week, and in-person on Tuesdays in Novato, CA. We’re having a great time together! If you’d like more info about my live-streaming fitness classes on Zoom or my upcoming in-person classes, contact me here. Hope to see you in a class sometime soon!

Chair Exercise

Join us for this gentle, unique exercise program that blends elements of Qigong, yoga, non-impact aerobics, and meditation all done while sitting in a chair. This class is ideal for you if you are new to exercise or have a physical challenge such as limited mobility that prevents you from doing conventional exercise. It is a fun, convenient, energetic way to burn calories, improve muscle tone, manage blood sugar levels, increase range of motion, lower stress and feel better all over in your body. Everyone is welcome, including those who need a wheelchair, walker or cane.
