Senior Fitness
The purpose of Senior Fitness is to encourage a healthy lifestyle. A way of life in which physical activity is valued and integrated into daily living. Our mission is to prevent disease and improve the quality of life of people, ages 50 and older, living in the Flathead Valley. The program reinforces the many benefits of being active, as well as the serious consequences of inactivity. Our program offers a variety of ways to get active physically, intellectually and socially. Senior Fitness is a pivotal tool in maintaining and improving the health of adults in Northwest Montana. If you're not participating in any of our classes at this time, please feel free to drop in on a trial basis. Take the time to meet the Senior Fitness trainers and we'll help you start an effective exercise program or try new activities to reach your goal level of fitness and fun for Senior Fitness. For more information on The Summit’s Senior Fitness program, please call 751-4116.
