Find Your Flow with Yoga!

Taught by Mahlon Crayton

  • When: Every Tuesday, Thursday & Saturday
  • Time: 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM

 

Yoga is a wonderful way for older adults to incorporate gentle movement, stretching, and relaxation into their routines.

With movements adapted to individual comfort and ability levels, yoga can help support flexibility, mobility, body awareness, and relaxation.

It’s also a great opportunity to slow down, take a deep breath, and enjoy a little time focused on personal wellness.

 

Find Your Balance with Tai Chi!

Taught by Michael

  • When: Every Wednesday & Friday
  • Time: 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM

 

Tai Chi combines slow, controlled movements with focused breathing and mindful attention.

Often described as meditation in motion, Tai Chi can be especially beneficial for older adults who want to maintain mobility, practice balance, and stay physically engaged.

And the best part? It’s an activity residents can enjoy together while encouraging one another along the way!

 

Supporting Wellness, Independence & Connection

At Knollwood, we believe staying active is about much more than exercise.

It’s about maintaining confidence, enjoying friendships, and continuing to do the things that make life meaningful.

Our community offers a variety of social, recreational, and wellness activities designed to support the mind, body, and spirit.

For residents receiving Memory Care, our person-centered philosophy also recognizes the value of movement and purposeful engagement. Gentle exercise, yoga, music, and other enriching activities are among the ways we encourage participation based on individual abilities and interests.

From wellness programs to opportunities for creativity and social connection, we want every resident to feel encouraged to make the most of each day.

Location: Memory Lane
