Chair based exercise
Every session starts with a gentle warm-up, sometimes seated, sometimes standing
We will be following social distancing guidelines at all times, with extra hygiene procedures in place to minimise the risks to participants and the instructor.
Volunteer Margaret Hughes delivers chair-based exercises in Kettering and surrounding areas that promote enhanced mobility and an increase in confidence. They are a social occasion for all who attend. Margaret has particular expertise in gentle exercise for people who have experienced a stroke.
