I’m thrilled to share that my mom’s cardiologist has reduced the dosage for Mom’s BP medication, and I (along with head nurse Liz Roth) think it’s a direct result of her overall improved physical health thanks to Penny’s dedication to my mom!!
The reduction of pharmaceutical intervention for a woman who’s turning 77 this year is fantastic. I can’t imagine this happens very often but regardless, I’m just thrilled it’s happening to my mom. She has always prioritized physical health, and we all thank you for your dedication to her!!!
My experience with Forever Fit has been very rewarding from start to present. I was impressed with the quality and variety of Yoga instructors and specialties that were presented to me for interviewing on my mom’s behalf, who has mid-stage Alzheimer’s. We decided to move forward with Penny and my mom’s quality of life has improved so much with that one decision. Penny’s patience and personality was the perfect fit to help my mom not only enhance her physical health but her mental health, too. On the rare occasion when they can’t meet one week, my mom’s confusion increases beyond having a “bad day” with the disease. After resuming her weekly Yoga lessons with Penny, she appears to be back on a level that’s status quo, which is the best we can hope for with someone having Alzheimer’s.
Cheryl teaches Zumba at Arbor Terrace, where my mom lives, and does an amazing job. She brings a lot of positivity and encourages all residents to move in a fun and safe way on their chairs. The residents smile and love Cheryl!
I could write pages on how you and your class have enhanced my well being! Since I started practicing yoga with Forever Fit, my body and spirit are stronger and more balanced. I appreciate her skill and compassion for her students. It makes practice with her a joyful and beneficial experience.
It’s a journey. When I reached out for help, I felt overwhelmed. Forever Fit helped me find ways to manage that, to see how to change it and to gain insights to who I am.
The classes provided by Forever Fit here at Cresswind of Charlotte, an active over 55+ community, have been such a gift! The things I have practiced and learned have helped me put balance in my life and in my physical body (bone and muscle). Strength is more important than ever, and I have gained strength by practicing yoga in Forever Fit’s classes. Excellent teacher. The classes are a joy and provide an opportunity for personal, physical, mental, and spiritual development. It is a joy to practice with Forever Fit. Kristy is a fantastic yogi, teacher, and guide. Her knowledge, passion, and love of yoga are ever-present in her teaching. She clearly appreciates and attends to individual needs and circumstances, helping everyone present explore the gift of yoga. A gift at this point in my life, when balance and bone and muscle and strength are more important than ever! She shares how she interprets and incorporates traditional yoga therapies in her life with humor and humility. I appreciate her wonderful teaching style and how she honors and encourages the minds, bodies, and spirits of all ages, sizes, and abilities.
I have long struggled with anxiety. Even though I know not to stress the small stuff, I often find my body tense and my mind start to race during stressful times. I had tried to ‘practice yoga’ and to meditate on my own, but it never helped. The Forever Fit teacher was wonderful in getting to know me and what challenges. She then developed a program to best help me. Having Kristy teach me the techniques, explain how they help and guide me through several sessions was enlightening. I am now able to take what Kristy has shown me and use them to help me when I find myself feeling anxious. Thank you so much Kristy.
My goal in the past year was to gain strength and balance to help address some of the issues that face older people like me, such as the risk of falling. Working with Kristy has helped me gain strength and balance physically, mentally, and emotionally. I appreciate how she always considers my capabilities and limitations when guiding me through a practice. Every movement is within my ability, challenges me to do more, and always considers my safety. She helps me understand how the physical, emotional, and mental aspects work together, helping me manage stress. I am much stronger, more stable, and mindful in all my everyday activities. Working with Kristy is a joyful experience!
Peace,
