Supporting Elder Health with Our Senior Wellness Seminar

At the Aboriginal Friendship Centre of Calgary, nurturing physical health and emotional kinship among our Elders is at the heart of our mission. Our upcoming Senior Wellness Seminar offers a welcoming, culturally grounded environment where seniors and Elders can learn accessible physical movements without strain or stress. Led by Aaron from AimFit Personal Training & Nutrition Coaching, this seminar teaches practical body mechanics to reduce fall hazards and sustain independence at home.

Because our primary goal is focused support, spaces are intentionally limited so each participant receives personal attention from our instructors. This gathering aligns directly with our wider spectrum of AFCC community services, ensuring our relatives have dependable access to health literacy, social connection, and cultural wellness. Whether you regularly attend our drop-in circles or are joining us at Omahkkitapioyis Elders Lodge for the first time, our doors are open.
