Make plans to be the person that YOU want to be and join us for a fun Be Fit Be Able class. Meet us on Mondays and Wednesdays from 1:00-2:00pm in the Anasazi Room at the Durango Senior Center located at 2424 Main Ave. Enjoy being able to get FIT with an easy chair workout. You can even roll in with your wheelchair and join us. Our chair workouts allow us to accomplish a myriad of movements with exercise bands on Mondays and with weights on Wednesdays. These Strength and Endurance classes will be the highlight of your week. 

We are able to get FIT while maintaining a feeling of safety as we sit in our chairs. Our brain can easily focus on our actual movements and not be worried about falling. Depending on the various movements that we are doing, these chair-based workouts can help us strengthen our core, as well as improve our postural strength. Our balance and range of motion will also be enhanced.

Every month new exercise routines are introduced. We are challenged as we track our progress and strive to persevere. We know that every month we are getting stronger and stronger. We always come prepared with a bottle of water because hydration is a necessary component for our workouts.

The one thing that people can do to address their health issues is to exercise. Health is motion. So make plans to join us and enjoy this new journey to Be Fit and Be Able. We are looking forward to seeing you soon!

Come have some fun working out, getting stronger, and giving back to the community!

Mondays & Wednesdays 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

A note from Lynn~ 10/24

Thank you to everyone who was able to attend the 3rd annual Be Fit Be Able party. Most of the team was able to attend and we missed those of you who could not make it this year. Enjoy the new team picture.

We enjoyed good food and fun at Dierdre’s home. Plus, this year we were blessed with transportation to and from the Senior Center. Thank you so much Liz Parmenter!

We had a fun time together and celebrated with 'The Game of Fit’ for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and last place newbie winners regarding workout totals from 4Q ’23 - 3Q ’24. Michelle Hover was the 1st place grand prize winner with 85 workouts. She received the Dumbbell Stack52. Sonia LaPonza was also a first place winner with 81 workouts and she received the Bodyweight Stack52 for her accomplishments.

Dinah Jones was our 2nd place winner with 65 workouts. She earned the Flexibility Stack52.

Dierdre Weber was our 3rd place winner with 57 workouts and she received the Wooden Workout. Debbi Betwee was also a 3rd place winner with 55 workouts and she will receive the Wooden Workout as well. We missed her at the party as she was out of town.

Our last place newbie winners were Bud and Sandy Beebe who each accomplished 27 workouts. They each received a Massage Ball for their accomplishments.

We keep track of our workouts collectively as we use them as our bench mark for our fun-raiser that we started in July 2021. Our motto is to “work out, get stronger, and give back to the community.”

We are looking forward to continuing our times of fun together as we grow our participants and raise more funds. Please join us when you can.
