Break Down Barriers & Overcome Physical Limitations with Chair One Fitness

Break Down Barriers & Overcome Physical Limitations with Chair One Fitness

#1 core value of Chair One Fitness is Compassion for the People- this value is woven in this entire episode. We had the honor of interviewing Alexis Perkins, Founder and Creative Director of Chair One Fitness, a nationally accredited program. "Chair One Fitness is a comprehensive chair exercise program designed for individuals who have complications standing during a fitness regimen". We dive into the story behind Chair One Fitness, why and how it was created. We talk about who this program is designed for, the benefits of staying active as we age and how this program accommodates all levels of mobility and cognition. Their mission and Alexis's passion for this aging population really shines through in all they do and the success stories that are shared during this episode. We talk about how we can equip family members, loved ones, and the senior living community to encourage, lead, and teach others to be active and have fun. We also end with a fun re-cap with Anna Larkin, an elderly caregiver- you don't want to miss this dynamic episode!
