Walk With Ease Program

The City of Parkland Parks and Recreation Department will be offering four separate six-week self-guided walking programs beginning Monday, January 23rd, titled, “Walk with Ease”.  Helping older adults to stay healthy and independent is the goal of the Healthy Aging Regional Collaborative, a nationally recognized initiative launched by Health Foundation of South Florida. Since 2008, more than 17,000 residents in Broward, Miami-Dade and Monroe Counties have participated in the Collaborative’s evidence-based programs. The newest program, Walk with Ease, will help to reduce arthritis pain and increase balance and strength. Developed by the Arthritis Foundation, the six-week program will aid participants in walking their way to less disability.  The class is fee of charge and is for participants of Broward, Miami-Dade and Monroe Counties ages 60 and older. The initial class will be held in the Parkland City Hall Activity Room at 10AM on Monday, January 23rd, 2012. Walk with Ease books will be distributed to each participant of the program.  Advance registration is required.
