Tell us what you did during Active Aging Week to redefine the term "Active."

Splendido’s Active Aging Week celebrated movement, exploration, and holistic wellness through a series of elevated experiences aligned with our ContinuWell framework. Residents embraced opportunities to connect with nature and challenge themselves in new ways, from a Geology Hike through Catalina State Park and a Trail Ride across the Sonoran Desert to rejuvenating outdoor floating meditation and aerial silk meditation enhanced by soundbathing. Indoors, participants scaled new heights with an Indoor Climbing session and discovered restorative practices during a Reflexology Workshop. These thoughtfully curated programs engaged residents of diverse ages and backgrounds, inspiring them to stay active while deepening connections within our community and the broader region. For many, the week was transformative. As Perry, a resident of six months, shared: “The fulfillment for me came from doing something outside my comfort zone—that's a good feeling. I’m really glad I went.” Reflecting on the climbing experience, Perry added: “The rock climbing was very, very different than anything I’d ever done. If I were not living at Splendido, I never would have done it.” Their mindset captured the spirit of the week: “That’s why I signed up—I look for opportunities to say ‘yes.’” Active Aging Week at Splendido truly embodied wellness without limits.
