Exercise is an important part of life for insuring good health. Exercise lowers high blood pressure, improves cardiac health and keeps the body fit and trim. Many active adult communities feature various forms of exercise for seniors to help them live long, independent lives. There are gymnasiums, tennis, swimming, walking and other health related facilities provided by many communities. Encanterra Country Club, the Trilogy communities of Monarch Dunes, Redmond Ridge, Rio Vista, The Vineyards plus Ardiente are all 55+ developments of Shea Homes. These are active adult communities built by one of the most respected, privately-owned homebuilders in America. Shea Homes communities are especially built with active seniors in mind, and for this reason, they provide residents a myriad of activities to help them stay fit which include group classes. “Group classes are ideal for seniors who are bored with treadmill and video workouts. Group classes challenge the limitations of active seniors” stated a spokesperson for Shea Homes. “Furthermore, group classes tend to be more fun than individual exercises and this promotes exercise among seniors, helping them to stay fit and healthy”. Golf is the highlight of The Encanterra Country Club in Arizona. This community’s golf course is designed by PGA tour veteran and former Ryder Cup captain Tom Lehman. Encanterra has introduced a new group exercise class that improves balance and flexibility for golf-playing seniors, as well as, non-golfing seniors. This form of exercise is known as the Golf Stretch. The Golf Stretch class emphasizes on the various muscles used during golf. This class is suitable for all levels of fitness and is beneficial to all. Boot Camp is another group exercise class at Encanterra where fitness is taken to the next level. This class is fast-paced, and all seniors are advised to take breaks whenever necessary. One senior at the Encanterra exclaimed after Boot Camp workout “I love this workout. It is exhausting, but I hardly feel it, as it is fun to exercise with a whole group of peers. We laugh at each other’s mistakes and encourage each other to push ourselves as much as possible. Thank you Encanterra for this class”. Trilogy at Monarch Dunes in Nipomo, California is an age-targeted, luxury, eco community that has made fitness extremely fun. For example, the Body Fit group class targets strength and muscle tone and aims at increasing metabolism by using a variety of equipment, such as dumbbells, resistance bands, benches, stability balls, and etc. Another group class is the fun dance, aerobics class, Zumba. This class uses Latin and international music to help seniors have fun and burn calories. Zumba Fitness is easy and is suitable for seniors with various skill levels. “I love Zumba!” exclaimed an enthusiastic, smiling senior after Zumba classes. “I have not had such fun in ages. I hated working out. Now I look forward to my classes”. Shea Homes at Ardiente in North Las Vegas, Nevada is especially designed for 55+ seniors. This community has introduced an excellent and fun way for these active adults to stay fit. Tap dancing classes! All levels of experience are welcome for the tap dancing classes, and the aim of these classes is to have fun, “shake your groove thing” and stay active and healthy in the process. Furthermore, weight training and cardio classes are also available for residents. This class covers circuit training, nutrition and weight loss and is open to all skill levels and ages. “The Trilogy communities by Shea Homes are high-quality homes that many seniors are extremely fortunate to live in” commented Lisa LaCount, Managing Member of Active Adult Living, a comprehensive website detailing more than 6,500 active adult communities. “The fact that the Trilogy communities care about the health and fitness of seniors by providing group exercise classes also adds to the benefits of living in these communities. Monarch Dunes, Encanterra and Ardiente are not the only communities that offer these group classes. Other Trilogy communities such as, Redmond Ridge, Rio Vista and Orlando also offer residents of their communities fun and exciting group exercise classes to help them stay fit and healthy. As health is such an important part of our lives, and Trilogy’s commitment to ensuring active adult stay healthy, I’m glad we Showcase these communities”.
