Woman’s health improves after taking exercise class

I encourage every senior to be in better health to do what I have been doing: I am an 85-year-young woman taking an exercise class twice a week with Jerry Vance at the Carson Senior Center.

Our group is comprised of men and women from age 98 down to people in their 60s and 70s. I walked in with a walker, then progressed to a cane and now can walk without support, can sit and rise from a chair without support, can cross my legs. Doctors say I’m looking better than some of their 60 year olds. This class charges a fee that anyone can afford: one dollar. Unbelievable for what one gets out of it for only a dollar. Jerry has been teaching for more than 40 years all over Carson City.

Call Jerry for her schedule: 775-841-7312.

Sincerely,

Florence Phillips

Carson City
