Health & Wellness
Creative expression is a form of communication.
At Origin Active Lifestyle Communities, we have done the research and have seen the benefits an active lifestyle can have on our quality of life as we age. We do our best to make fitness fun at any level through our safe and progressive programs. Our salt-water pool and two fitness studios equipped with state-of-the-art fitness equipment make it possible for residents of any age to take control of their physical well-being. We offer group fitness classes 6 or more times each week, and residents are always welcome to use the pool and studios at their leisure.
Fitness & Movement Studio
Our Strength & Conditioning Training Studio boasts award-winning Kaiser senior’s fitness equipment. Regular strength or resistance training can help prevent the natural loss of lean muscle mass that comes with aging, as well as those with reduced mobility. Our training studio is designed to meet the needs of seniors with reduced mobility, so even those in wheelchairs can experience the health benefits of exercise and an active lifestyle.
The Movement Studio at Origin is a bright and beautiful open space to get active. You can “Swing into Motion™” by participating in a dance class or stretch it out in a yoga class. Our fitness coaches lead you in all types of group fitness in this studio like Tai Chi, Chair Fitness, or Pilates, there’s something for everyone to enjoy here. Origin’s trademarked “Balance for Life™” class is everyone’s favourite. This is a physically therapeutic activity to restore and assist in fall prevention. In this class, we strengthen muscles and adapt focus to keep you balanced.
