Your Y is so active! I've always wanted a more active Y. Mine always seem to be very kid focused, which is great. I just wish they'd do more adult activity, too. And we have a very lovely senior center here in town, but the people are older than I am, even though I'm by age number a senior. So I don't fit anywhere in this town. I don't like that feeling.
We have a lovely senior program at the Y. They don’t call it that though, it’s called legends program and is open to anyone with mobility issues. At 64 I’m almost the youngest though. The aqua program though has no age though all of us are seniors. My friend there is the oldest she’s mum’s age almost, 94. In fitness class we sometimes take time to detail what we’re doing and various mindfulness activities. A couple of months age we had a challenge to take a 30 day gratitude photo everyday. Many of us did that and we spent half the class just sharing photos and things we we’re grateful for. It makes for a very friendly atmosphere.
