Health & Care Resources > Fitness and Wellness
The Gardens of Peterborough is proud to have a Fitness and Wellness Coordinator on our Care team. As part of our commitment to care for the "whole" individual, the Fitness and Wellness Coordinator ensures that each resident has opportunities to develop and maximize their physical abilities. Our program includes regular
 exercise, balance-improvement, and mobility classes to help you maintain an independent lifestyle. Our holistic approach to "Wellness" encourages opportunities such as Yoga, Tai Chi, Relaxation and other alternative forms of health enhancing therapies. Our certified staff can provide an individual assessment of your current status and assist you and your family in developing a program just for you. Working on your own or with staff, each Gardens of Peterborough community has exercise rooms and equipment to help improve your fitness levels and give you the strength and energy you need to stay healthy and active.

These organizations are an important part of the local community and they form a regular part of The Gardens experience, providing ongoing programming and special interest sessions.
