Seniors Active Living Centre (SALC)

Programs

Seniors’ Centre Without Walls

Seniors’ Centre Without Walls (SCWW) is only a phone call away!

Through the use of multi-person phone calls, SCWW provides the opportunity for participants to join in on health and wellness seminars, educational lectures, brain-stimulating activities, listen to live musical entertainment, join in on general conversations, and make new and meaningful friendships – all from the comfort of home! It works just the same as attending a class or a lecture at the centre, but instead it is facilitated over the telephone.

Some of the programs include Name that Tune, Short Stories and Trivia. A great way to spend half an hour connecting with friends.

Diners club

The Diners' Club is a social lunch at the centre each Wednesday. A hot meal is prepared and served by volunteers in the comfort of the dining room. A wonderful opportunity to catch up with friends, old and new. Guest speakers are scheduled throughout the year.

Enjoy themed lunches celebrating the holidays throughout the year! Reservations must be made the day before 12:00 pm.

Activities at the Centre

Seniors' Community Services offers a wide variety of fun activities held weekly at the centre including:

  • Euchre
  • Skip-Bo
  • Cribbage

Yak-Yarn

Yak & Yarn is a weekly gathering at the SCS Centre for those who love to knit, crochet, quilt and craft. Experienced or a newbie, it is a wonderful opportunity to get together and share skills, ideas and fun.

exercise classes

Stretch and Strengthen Exercise Classes

Exercise classes are held at the Centre and provide a well-rounded exercise program to increase balance, strengthen core and help with overall range of motion. Classes focus on increasing coordination, mobility, strength and feeling good!

A trained instructor will lead and support you to a healthier, more active lifestyle.

yoga

Beginners Hatha Yoga for seniors offered by Yoga instructor Sandy Guest.

Yoga is an anti-aging practice. It promotes the feeling of well-being by toning both the body and mind. It helps to maintain coordination, flexibility and, balance and improves our agility. Most yoga poses are designed to create space in our bodies. Lengthening the spine in downward dog and child creates space between each vertebra, which then improves nerve conduction to all organs, so everything is working and flows better. Also, as we age, our bones lose density and our joints become stiff. A gentle yoga practice slows the loss of bone density and relieves bone and joint pain.
