Tell us what you did during Active Aging Week to redefine the term "Active."
At the JCC of Greater Pittsburgh, we redefined "Active" by hosting many exciting new programs. Our classes were packed with members and guests of all ages working toward the goal of staying healthy, vital and social. Our bring a buddy day was a hit in Beginner's Pickleball, Yoga and Group Active classes. The community was very invested in our Medicare Talk on 10/3/19 - they learned the ins and outs of Medicare. The dance studio was bursting with Zumba, Walk 15! and T'ai Chi participates. Others focused on improving their balance with Centergy, Inner balance and T'ai Chi. Our PWR! class was learning drumming to improve motor skills by rhythmic entrainment. We also finished the week with a wonderful afternoon noon of music across the generations with an amazing pianist Ron Bickle. The JCC of Greater Pittsburgh Mission is: NURTURING PEOPLE CONNECTING COMMUNITY EACH DAY THROUGH EVERY AGE INSPIRED BY JEWISH VALUES This is how we redefine "Active Aging".
