As we get older, exercise becomes even more important in our lives. It keeps our muscles toned, our bones strong, improves our balance and enhances our sense of wellbeing.
All those things are important not only for their long term health benefits but also for ensuring we are able to maintain our independence and quality of life as we get older.

Who are we?
Healthy Lifestyle is a physical activity program for adults aged over 50. A part of Health Promotion, NSW Health, the program has been run across the Northern Sydney area for over 30 years and receives more than 10,000 enrolments each year.
Courses are suitable for beginners and those who exercise regularly. They are also beneficial for people dealing with osteoporosis, arthritis, diabetes, cardiovascular disease or other chronic conditions.
Our participants report they feel stronger, fitter and more mobile for taking part in exercise classes. They also enjoy the opportunity to socialise and meet new friends of their own age.
Leaders
Course leaders are fully registered to teach their exercise discipline and have additional training in working with older adults. They also undergo professional development training and performance assessment on an annual basis.
Fees
Healthy Lifestyle operates on a non-profit basis with the income generated by course fees used to help cover the program’s operating costs. Fees are very reasonable and concessions are available for pensioners.
