ACAP Hickory / Foothills is hosting a free educational program titled "Movement for Older Bodies" on Thursday, February 12th at 5:30pm.
The program will be held at the main branch of the Catawba County Library, located at 115 West C. Street in Newton, NC 28658.
The latest research shows that a sedentary lifestyle is as debilitating as smoking which, for
decades, has been reported to have significant adverse consequences on physical, mental/cognitive, and
emotional health and well-being. But, in the midst of everything, how can we find time to exercise? And
how do we meaningfully encourage older loved ones to regularly engage in healthy movement?
This ACAP program will help participants become aware of healthy movement and its impact on physical,
cognitive, and emotional well-being, local resources that focus on supporting movement and exercise for
an older population, and specific movement activities and exercises that will help strengthen bodies and
minds at all stages of aging.
