All smiles while exercising!
Balance challenge!
Super confident in her "80's".
96 and ready to exercise!
Did NOT take any time off due to this toe injury; painful time but I gotta keep on going!
Phase/Face 3 - is she moving yet? Nope, let's continue to laugh about it!
This 'young man' turned 99 and we celebrated by exercising!
Is this a 'pained' look or what?
Here he is, 99 years old and doing a tricep DIP..yes, he is DIPPING, ha ha
Yay, he got back up all by himself. He did a total of 8!
At a few days before age 104, she seemed fragile yet determined:)
So proud of her; keep on going, Dora!
Finally, we both have the same leg up!
Seniors-they keep at it...so proud of them!
Sitting or standing, just do something- try to stay active!
Not much smiling (at first)
Not much smiling (at second either)..
3rd time is a charm..all smiles:)
My fav tee, I had to buy 2, love the message!
This 96 year old thinks I need help to tie my shoelaces!
She is keeping up, love the effort!
Proud of these 'young ladies'!
Eva is at it again!
She did it! Derrick (who is blind) 'looks on'.
Derrick's way of stretching a cup of water, ha ha
Almost at the top now!
He sure did a lot of walking up and down these stairs!
Forget about size, forget about shape...even a dog needs exercise!
Exercising makes us smile!
Using a walker, have a neck brace..you can still be more active than just sitting down all day!
Time to lift one leg and balance...
At the 'Spring Into Wellness' Senior Health Expo -

A little support never hurt anyone..
Let's dance!
Now this 95 year old gent is feeling more 'balanced'.
In a wheelchair? You can still do some sort of activity/exercise..
I work hard for 'dem calves'..
You are never too old...
Everybody can get stronger!
No excuses, exercise standing or sitting!
You are never too ______ to exercise.
This amazing lady is now 101 years 'young'
and STILL exercises frequently with me!!!

These 'Seniors' continue to motivate me! They work so hard because they want to improve the quality of their lives...age range - 56 to 96+!!!
Who doesn't need core strength?
95 years old and going strong-he never misses any of my classes!!!!
Seniors - willing to work so hard...they continue to MOVE and IMPROVE!
Can you lift your arm? Way up? Straight up? Range of motion counts!
Men getting ready to exercise...
Watch the pro at work, ha ha
"Seniors" keep on going, I love it!
"Seniors" working together!
Stretching is a good thing!
ALL smiles! So inspiring!
99 young man and 96 young lady both have fun in my classes!
Phase/Face 2 - let's laugh about getting more active!
Phase/Face 4 - looks at me as if to say, "You're still waiting?"
Eye test? Ha ha ha
He is exercising, she is....observing (exercising her eyes, I guess:)..
He is trying to get back up...
..went to visit Dora because I hadn't seen her
in exercise class for over a week:(
She made it, we got to celebrate her 104 birthday!
My expression says it all, ha ha
Only my turn to balance...
This is called, 'being supportive', ha ha
Stretching is....necessary!
Can you reach your toes?
Here's...Dora, she's 103 and still going strong/exercising with me!
Go Dora!
Showing the Seniors you can stretch anywhere, even on top of a piano:)
The competition is on!
We all look so happy when we are working the shoulders:)
Mr. "OVERachiever", I only suggested lifting the leg:)
Elbow flexibility test, you go girls!
Please lift your right leg, Eva (who just happens to be 103 years old)!!
Time to lift the left leg; go Eva!
95 years old and walking up these steep stairs!
Coming back down with hands above head (core stretch:)
I love when people 'make that extra effort'. It hurts Lee to stand most days! Go Lee!
Can you spot the 102 year old lady? Yup, she is there!
Here we go..balancing..with a smile!
I just love the effort! Keep on trying!
