I have been a member of the MOVEability Get Berkshire Active chair seated exercise class since inception. I am 81 and in pretty good health except for arthritis in my back and left shoulder. Being sedentary during the lockdowns is not good for this condition because of increased pain and stiffness which in turn leads to depression. I have benefitted so much from these classes by being able to move easier, bend, walk and have less pain. Above all this is the most pleasant group I have ever attended the instructors are warm, caring and friendly as are all the members. Via zoom we are able to chat and hear what others are doing and it makes my day altogether pleasant. My back is being attended to by the Berkshire Orthopaedic Clinic who commented that I should continue these exercises as I would only benefit from them. Three Cheers to a wonderful team.
