Come for the exercises…..stay for the friendships
Welcome
We are a not for profit social club for people with mobility challenges along with others who are interested in remaining active and healthier. The club activities can be helpful to leading fuller and happier lives. The club is open to all Sun City West residents regardless of their fitness level.
Our club meets at Beardsley pool on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday mornings from 9:00 – 10:00 a.m. The pool is reserved exclusively for our members to provide them with a comfortable environment while doing water exercises or walking.
Our program was developed by a licensed physical therapist. The exercises are designed to strengthen the arms, legs and the core, work on balance and coordination, increase mobility and improve stamina. Performing exercises in water facilitates movement but can also provide resistance to help with strengthening. Mobility issues can be helped with water exercises including arthritis, back pain, joint replacements, post fracture, neuropathy, and many neurological conditions.
The spouse or companion of a member needing assistance is required to remain during the duration of the class to lend any assistance they may require. We suggest you check with your doctor to make sure this program is compatible with your medical condition.
Wheelchairs are available for ease of entering the pool if required. Others use the stairs or the ramp as their abilities dictate. Shower stalls are equipped with grab bars, and there are large dressing rooms for members who physically are not able to use the regular locker rooms.
Our dues are $27 for the first year and $25 annually thereafter. Monday and Wednesday classes exercises are led by a club member. On Saturday a licensed physical therapist leads the class in those exercises as well as 15 minutes of noodle resistance exercises to round out the routine. In addition, our therapist is available for consultation.
We have a Board consisting of a slate of officers elected annually, and committee chairpersons. Membership meetings are held three times a year to conduct club business. We try to plan monthly social events open to all members and their guests.
