When I first started the Wellness Program I was walking hunched over and leaning heavily on my walker. I now find myself walking not only straighter, but faster and with bigger steps. I think the best move we’ve made is to bring this wellness program to Tudor Oaks – I love it! (Ethel Spencer)
I have a waist! My clothes fit better, my posture is better and I just feel much better physically and mentally. I really notice the difference after the relaxation class especially. (Marge Stueber)
Thanks to the exercise program my arm and leg muscles have strengthened so much that I was able to move our heavy bird bath closer to the patio so I could plug in the electric bird bath heater. (Jerry Stueber)
I used to be in the powered chair all the time. Now I can walk without any aide for approximately 30 minutes at a time. I still use the chair occasionally for convenience, but I don’t rely on it. I was amazed at how much my assessment scores improved and I now feel more enthusiastic because of those results!! I love our instructor! (Joan Wisniewski)
I think our exercise classes are wonderful! It’s so good to see such great attendance at the classes. I feel that I move about and walk better. Not only my husband, but plenty of others have noticed the improvement in my posture and walking. (Jean Moore)
I used to go to the Wisconsin Athletic Club and work out on the machines. I enjoy the classes here at Tudor Oaks much better because they’re fun and there’s so much laughter! Lisa loves to give us a hard time, but pushes us towards progression. (Paula Shockey)
We didn’t come here to die, we came here to live the good life – and so it is we have wellness, good food, freedom and friends. I didn’t want to come here, Dennis did . . . and I LOVE IT!!!!!! (Marjorie Pierce)
Having this program to go to every day gives me something to look forward to. Having a schedule like I used to at home is a healthy thing. I see how others have changed too – more outgoing, active, and personable). In the beginning, many people said that they wouldn’t go to classes because of the mirrors – now look at them! I was always active before I moved here 4 years ago and this program allows me to preserve my physical function and activity. Lisa is wonderful! (June Rolli)
I live well within the limitations and boundaries I have and can’t change. I exercise 2-3 times daily for 20-25 minutes each time and I bought a computer to keep my mind engaged. (Warren Clark)
I’ve wanted to get my weight below 200 lbs for many years and after 12 weeks I’ve done that! I love the classes. I can come down grouchy and achy and leave feeling energized and happy. Our instructor puts us in a light-hearted carefree spirit. It is the best program I have ever been to and we’ve been to a few!
