Lots of REDers tell us they’d like to try group exercise classes, but are a bit unsure about how they work. So we spoke to instructor Carrie from @EMDForLife, about her top tips for trying a new class for the first time…

Great article - thanks to @EMDForLife for busting the myths about seated exercise. For many people this means they can workout for a full hour & enjoy the group atmosphere without worrying about their balance or stamina. #copd #ms #Parkinsons #stroke @movingmedicine.

Another way to increase your daily steps is to find a #groupexercise class that suits you. Our instructors - of all ages - have classes to suit all abilities and fitness levels and they are so much fun!
