Seniors active, fit and healthy

NOOSAVILLE’S Wallace Park is home to a wide range of activities for seniors.
Nestled behind the hill in Wallace Park is Noosa Leisure Centre, hosting activities morning, noon and night, with many aimed at keeping local seniors active, fit and healthy.
Noosa Leisure Centre offers a comprehensive group fitness program catering for all ages and abilities. Health research has found the “move it or lose it” motto and staying active is a great way to help ward off health issues such as obesity, arthritis, osteoporosis, diabetes and heart disease.
Noosa Leisure group fitness classes are designed with seniors in mind – they’re varied and interesting, with welcoming, mature and caring instructors, and affordable prices. Check out the current group fitness timetable and full information at www.noosa.qld.gov.au/nlc or phone 5329 6550.
There is also a multitude of social senior sports and creative groups that meet weekly at the centre including table tennis, badminton, indoor bowls, RIPE dance classes, the creative writers group and the ’60s and Better group.
All these groups are eager to welcome new participants, and no experience or fitness is necessary.
The Noosa Leisure Centre is located at 9 Wallace Drive, Noosaville, next to the library and just down the road from the Noosa Arts and Craft Association building.
