Ash Creek Fitness at Parish Court Elderly Housing?



It's Not Exercise - It's Z! Ash Creek started as pilot project designed to combat childhood obesity. Called Fairfield Strength form and function - we partnered with the Fairfield Recreation Department and Roger Ludlow Middle School. Over the years our vision grew to include mentorship and internship opportunities for high school and university students. As stated in our mission statement - our goal is to provide movement training to children of all ages. In that vein we initiated our Z for Seniors program just over 2 weeks ago. We had our second session on Friday - and it was wonderful. Dr. Steve, Meridith, Joe and Mary all volunteered their time to help out. Thanks so much to Parish Court Director Beverly Honychurch and the residents of Parish Court for giving us the opportunity to share what we have learned. You only get to keep it if you give it away. Stay safe.
