Winter brings unique challenges for older adults, but with some planning and a proactive approach, you can maintain your health, activity, and well-being throughout the colder months.

Fitness: It is recommended to engage in at least 30 minutes of physical activity five days per week. RiverWoods offers a diverse selection of indoor fitness classes, including strength training, yoga, and balance enhancement exercises. This mix of options ensures that residents have multiple opportunities to maintain engagement and pursue their fitness goals while keeping things interesting.

Mental and social engagement: Mental and social activity is as vital as physical health, promoting joy and resilience throughout the season. RiverWoods residents enjoy many options: card games, crafts, learning new skills, social clubs, events, or simply meeting for a casual conversation or shared meal—all right here within the community.

Getting outdoors: Outdoor activities remain accessible to residents even in winter. Organized outings offer opportunities to experience cultural attractions such as museums or concerts or to participate in winter sports including snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. These group events enable residents to make the most of limited sunlight during the colder months.
