FREE Brain & Body Exercises for Seniors - Tampines in October
Event Information
About this event
The Brain & Body Exercises for Seniors aim to slow down the onset of dementia and to reduce falls caused by frailty. Inspired by the programme designed in Japan, this is a dual-task exercise programme to help seniors stay physically and mentally well. Keep yourself active and healthy, and make new friends along the way!
Dual-task exercises are activities where the individual performs a physical and a mental task. An example would be stepping on the spot and counting out loud. This stimulates the parts of the brain responsible for physical movement coordination and cognitive functions.
Evidence has shown that dual-task exercises have more beneficial effects than single-task exercises.
* Brain & Body Exercises for Seniors is FREE for the month of October 2021.
However, donations are welcome.
