Column: Health and Fitness Fair for Seniors

Now that it is finally Spring and the weather is warming up, it’s time to get out and start moving. The April 23 Speaker Series is just the place to be. This month SSA is cosponsoring its April Speaker Series on “The 5 Senses and Aging/Health & Fitness Fair,” with Inova Alexandria Hospital and Alexandria’s Successful Aging Committee. It’s taking place from 9:30 a.m. – noon at the Lee Center, 1108 Jefferson Street, Alexandria.

Participants will hear from doctors and other experts on how our five senses change as we age. There will also be a healthy cooking demonstration with Chef Hans from Inova Alexandria Hospital, different fitness programs available to seniors including tai chi and belly dancing, blood pressure screenings and more.

This event is free, open to the public and light refreshments will be served. To register go to www.seniorservicesalex.org or call Senior Services at 703-836-4414, ext. 10.
