One of the most important qualities when looking into an independent senior living community is the senior activities that the community offers. As active members of the community, the resident coming into Summer’s Landing expects the freedom to maintain their lifestyle and creative opportunities to explore. Thus, we offer numerous senior activities for all of our residents to engage with as well as assisted living services that allow them to maintain their independence. By freeing up time and taking on many of the daily burdens, our active and independent residents live their best life in retirement.

IMPROVE YOUR HEALTH 

With Senior Living in Florida

It doesn’t matter what age you are, physical activity and exercise improve your health. Therefore, Summer’s Landing provides regular outlets for exercise. Participating in exercise classes not only improves and maintains an individual’s health but is also a great social practice. Classes bring neighbors and peers together. Being able to discuss, share, and work together with others is key in living not just an active life but a good one. So whether you participate in aerobics, stretching exercises, or weight training, exercise will increase your strength, flexibility, and balance, and will keep your mind sharp and focused.

Some senior activities that grow out of exercise and physical activity can include:

  • Walking: Walking, jogging, or hiking is one of the simplest yet most satisfying ways for people of any age to stay active. It is an activity one can do alone or with others. Also, it allows individuals to explore their community, stay in touch with their neighborhood, and be involved with the world.
  • Swimming: Older individuals may not always have the stamina they used to have. Sometimes, arthritis or joint issues hamper mobility. Thus, swimming or water activities are an excellent way to increase one’s strength, stay active, and avoid discomfort or inflammation.
  • Dancing: Perhaps one of the most social activities an individual can engage in is dancing. It is a great way to not only meet new people but keep your heart and joints healthy. Further, like many other exercises, it keeps the mind alert and engaged.
