“I have really enjoyed the balance and stretching classes. Instructor Stacy Shay is experienced and clearly understands aging bodies. After four sessions so far, she is appropriately starting to ramp up stamina and range of movement … Thanks for offering this and yoga. Both are wonderful!”

“I find the gentle balance and stretch exercise class to be very valuable. I’m getting a good workout, and I really like the instructor. Her pace is just right for me; in fact, she has picked up the pace from the first session, which suits me just fine. I have tried many other virtual classes this year since my Silver Sneakers classes shut down at my local gym and have always been discouraged before. But this class works my body just right and gets my heart rate up, but not too much. I also value the social aspect as I get to know the other participants. It helps relieve my isolation.”

“The Friday stretch class is helpful for cardio, balance and mobility improvements. Also, I love the weekly yoga class.”

“I just finished Stacy’s exercise class. She has a nice pace and way about her with clear explanations. Most enjoyable — and I especially like meeting Aberdeenites.”

"I enjoyed the presentation about volcanoes in Antarctica. It was my first class with the Pillar Institute, and all went well with the technology. I’ll surely attend more Pillar classes.”
