Elders Voice endeavour to provide a range of activities to over-55s living in Brent, who want to meet new people, get fit or learn a new skill. Don’t see anything you fancy? Tell us what kind of activities you would like to take part in!
Reminiscence Sessions.
Mondays at 3pm-4pm & Tuesdays at 2pm-3pm / for people with dementia & their carers Join us at our Reminiscence Sessions where we will be using our senses to evoke precious memories, and help people reconnect with themselves. Our facilitator will provide mindful guidance as you look at artworks, touch objects, listen to music, taste foods, smell scents and move your body. We will embark on a sensory journey into the past, and by doing so hopefully enrich the present! These sessions are free to attend.
Chair Yoga.
Tuesdays at 12pm-1pm / over-55s Chair Yoga is a gentle, seated exercise class for people who want to stay supple in body and mind. Suitable for all levels, the series of movements and stretches are easy to follow and gently exercise all areas of the body. This class aims to improve your balance, increase your bone strength, boost your immunity and lower your stress levels. At the end of the session we enjoy some deep breathing and participants often feel more calm & relaxed than when they arrived. This class is £4.00 per session.
“I love coming to Elders Voice. Everyone is so nice and since joining Yoga my bones feels better.” – Chair Yoga participant
Zumba Gold.
Wednesdays at 11am-12pm / over-55s Zumba Gold is a Latin dance & aerobics class which combines various dance moves including those from salsa, samba, mambo, cha cha and more, all to the sound of fabulously upbeat, Latin dance music. Zumba Gold was especially designed with older people in mind and is an excellent way to increase your muscle strength, improve your balance & flexibility and alleviate stress. It’s also really fun (we’ve yet to meet someone who hasn’t smiled or laughed at least once in a session!) and a great place to meet new people. This class is £4.00 per session.
“Zumba makes me feel light and full of energy. It’s the highlight of my day on Wednesday and I hate when I have to miss it!” – Zumba Gold participant
