Martial Arts Classes help seniors sharpen cognitive functions such as memory, executive reasoning, and problem-solving capabilities, all while improving skills needed for longevity including balance, strength, and coordination. The best way to learn is by having fun, and you can expect lots of laughter in this 45-minute class! Together, we practice ancient Filipino martial arts movements, working both empty-handed and also incorporating maneuvers with gentle foam sticks. Each class includes a thorough warm-up, cooldown, stretching, and builds from the last so that you feel progression and self-confidence in your ability level. Classes are designed for all ability levels and can be taken standing or seated, or a combination of both. Come and join us for some martial arts fun and to turn into a senior ninja!
