Stay Active Longer NHS-approved exercises – Classes in East Sussex

Curious what it’s really like? Here’s what class members say:

“I was the only person in Mary’s first class—now there’s a whole community of us. My balance has improved, I move more easily, and it’s the only class I’ve ever looked forward to coming to every week.”

“For both John and I, joining Stay Active Longer has been a very worthwhile move. The classes have restored my confidence in my ability to stay flexible and active. Mary’s friendly, professional, non-judgmental approach means everyone’s individual needs are met, which makes such a difference.

I’ve also loved the social side—laughing, chatting, and enjoying the company of others. The humour and choice of music are perfect too!”

“I’ve really benefited from attending Mary’s exercise classes. I’m now much more confident in my movement and my balance has improved greatly. I particularly appreciate that Mary researched Parkinson’s to better understand my needs and tailors the exercises accordingly.”

“I have been going to Stay Active Longer classes for over a year. I thoroughly enjoy the classes as, not only do they help me stay active as I get older, but they are very enjoyable. Mary teaches us how to improve our balance and strengthen essential muscles.”

“I go to Mary’s class at Peacehaven. It is very informative with simple exercises you can easily do at home. The class is also a lot of fun. There’s no right or wrong it’s just about moving safely!”

“I’ve been going to Mary’s class in Bishopstone for over a year now and always enjoy it. I’ve made new friends too, which is lovely.

We start with easy aerobic movements, followed by exercises for balance and strengthening our muscles. Mary is very easygoing and makes it a lot of fun.”

“I’m so pleased I found this friendly, upbeat exercise class. Mary’s exercises are evidence-based and work on both body and mind. She makes exercise fun in a relaxed setting, with the aim of staying as fit as possible for as long as possible. Highly recommended!”

“I learn something new every session. Mary is a brilliant teacher, making me aware of the importance of staying active and flexible by incorporating a few simple moves into my daily routine”
