This Month's Topic: Health and Fitness

 

We all know the benefits of exercise.  Who would not want healthier joints,
muscles, heart, brain, metabolism, and emotions?  Yet, something always gets
in the way of starting or keeping up an exercise plan.  Blind and visually
impaired people confront additional barriers to exercise, ranging from
inaccessible equipment and facilities to lack of confidence and low
expectations.  Join our March 17 <x-apple-data-detectors://1>  Sharing
Solutions for Vision Loss Teleconference as we discuss health and fitness.
Our guest Mel Scott, fitness advocate, founder and president of Blind
AliveLLC, and creator of the Eyes Free Fitness workout series, will join us
as we discuss topics such as the unique fitness needs of blind individuals
and of seniors, accessibility issues related to fitness activities,
adaptations to make various exercise activities accessible to blind
participants, and how to access fitness centers and community centers as a
blind participant.
