As a member of the Healthy Aging Regional Collaborative of the Health Foundation of South Florida,
Open Door Health Center offers evidence-based EnhanceFitness® senior fitness classes at various
churches/places of worship and community organizations. Regular physical activity is important
for people of all ages, particularly for seniors, who tend to have more chronic health conditions
such as arthritis, diabetes and heart disease. Being physically active can help seniors: reduce the
risk of developing or help manage chronic health conditions, improve mobility, self-confidence and their
energy level - all of which help to keep them healthy and independent.
Three times per week patients and local community members meet for these fun and highly motivating
exercise sessions that focus on building strength, endurance, balance and flexibility - all to the energetic
rhythms of the islands!
Come join the fun at get fit at one of our ongoing classes!
