NEW!
My 12th book, 6th seniors' exercise guide, is now available for purchase. The Aging Parents Book is a movement and gentle exercise guide. The purpose of this book is to show you, or your older loved one, how to do gentle movement-based exercises that will both feel good AND improve mobility and strength, as you (they) go about daily life.
These exercises will improve walking, reinforce good posture, and enhance ease of movement during day-to-day life. All of the exercises in this book are completed lying down (on a bed) or seated in a chair.
The font size has been increased and the font style has been changed, to improve readability for those with eyesight challenges.

Free online workouts for seniors!
I created four 30-minute exercise videos for the Ottawa Public Library. You can access the videos on their YouTube channel 1. Standing Mobility Workout 2. Standing Strength Workout 3. Seated Workout 4. Lying Down Workout |
The online courses, 3 Days to Better Balance and Balance 2.0, are now unlocked and available for free.
These mini courses will help you improve body awareness and coordination, strengthen your brain-body connection, and learn how to use your feet more - taking off your shoes and getting those feet activated! The exercises and tips are designed to improve muscle strength, joint flexibility, and body awareness. All of these components are critical to maintaining good balance as you age. |
My mission is one of health promotion. I want to help you add more movement, both exercise and non-exercise activity, to your busy life so you can feel better and enjoy life. Are you too busy to go to a gym to workout? Perhaps you're uncomfortable working out in a public setting. I make fitness more accessible to you. My first book, Move More, Your Life Depends On It: Practical Tips to Add More Movement to Your Day, offers common sense solutions to help you add non-exercise activity to your busy life. My second book, Balance and Your Body: How Exercise Can Help You Avoid a Fall, is geared to seniors who want to maintain their independence and prevent falls. If you're a professional sitter, and you spend too many hours in a seated position every day, my third book, Your Job Is Killing You: A User's Guide to Sneaking Exercise Into Your Work Day, is for you.
