Since I became a resident at Lakewood Manor, the Circuit Training class has been a big part of my life. Getting into a regular exercise routine 3 days a week has made a great difference. We residents are most fortunate to have this opportunity. This is truly a wonderful place.

Everyone should try Yoga and try doing it as long as possible.

I never thought of doing any particular exercise; I was always active and able to do whatever I needed to do. Then I was introduced to Yoga!

I’m 80 years old now with osteoporosis and some of the discomfort that accompanies it, but Yoga has been my friend. We stretch and bend every part of our bodies, and I come away with relaxed muscles, joints and ready for a good day.
