Older Adults (60+)
Older adults gym programme (for over 60s)
Our Older Adults gym programme in central London offers over 60s the opportunity to improve physical and mental health while combating feelings of isolation or loneliness.
This is done through our gentle exercise classes, meditation and wellbeing sessions, social teas and social trips.
To get involved, you can join YMCA Club or find out more information by contacting our Older Adults Coordinator James Simpkin at James.simpkin@ymca.co.uk or 0203 994 9615.
All our classes are specifically designed for people wanting activities of a low to moderate intensity and are an ideal way to help over 60s maintain independent living.

Please book your session in advance to help us manage member numbers and keep everyone safe.
A key part of the Older Adults programme is to encourage social interaction between our members, that’s why we hold three weekly social tea events at the Club.
Social tea events take place on:
Tuesdays 2pm – 2.30pm
Thursdays 4pm – 4.20pm
These allow a relaxing, informal space for members to catch up and broaden their friendship circles.

We offer our members the opportunity to broaden their cultural and intellectual horizons by taking part in a variety of social day trips and a weekend away. This could be anything from a daytrip to Brighton, or a weekend away in Hayling Island. These trips are often subsidised, and the activities and destinations are decided upon by the members themselves.
We also host an annual seniors Christmas party at the Club which enables members and guests to enjoy some good food and entertainment at a subsidised price.
