“I have always walked and kept active, so I had not given much thought to adding a balance class to my routine. However, some of my Kingswood friends invited me to attend, with lunch after. Lunch was a great incentive! Once I began Claire’s class, I realized my balance wasn’t what it used to be. I had become accustomed to getting off balance when putting on slacks or drying my legs off after a shower and needing to sit or hold on to something for support. Now, after several months of practicing balance techniques both in her chair class and aqua class, I find I have a much stronger core, and don’t become unbalanced while stepping into my jeans or drying off one leg. Getting older doesn’t necessarily mean a constant decline in abilities. I’m so thankful for the professional guidance that Claire has provided through my Kingswood Community.”
