Good morning, Welcome to Homework Day 1!
Today we are working those legs with leg raises. 10 normal ones, then 10 the Niki way… nice and slow! 😂
But why are we bothering?
Because strong legs aren't just about being able to kick someone under the table when they annoy you… although that is obviously a very useful bonus. 🤣
Strong legs help us with every day activities like getting up out of our chair, walking, climbing the stairs, getting in and out of the car and keeping our balance. Keeping our legs strong is vital for falls prevention and to help us maintain our independance, so whilst these leg exercises may seem boring they play a very important role. So dont forget to pop down below how you have done when and if you have completed today's task 😂. Enjoy x

Right then, lovely lot… Every day this week I’ll be putting an exercise on here, along with your reps, for you to have a go at at home. A little something to keep you moving, busy, strong, fit and healthy. And if you fancy it, pop a little note underneath each day and let me know how you got on.......Even if it is just to moan 😂
BUT NOT TODAY! Monday’s class has already worked so hard today. What a class! You absolutely smashed it. And my Star of the Day has to go to my Dad. Yes, yes… I KNOW I’m biased because he’s my dad! 😂 But he hasn’t been well and today he came back fighting and absolutely smashed that class. I was so proud watching him push himself. And a huge well done to Peter, Rae and the wonderful Ken, who also really pushed themselves today. You worked incredibly hard and it definitely showed.
Well done to ALL of you.
Now keep your eyes peeled tomorrow for your FIRST SET OF EXERCISES…
I bet you cant wait!!! 😝
Come on then, Silver Strengthers… let’s see what you’ve got!

At Silver Strength, we don't just count repetitions. Sometimes we count smiles, songs, steps, memories and little victories too.
Because behind every diagnosis is still a person. A person who deserves to laugh, move, dance, sing, feel strong and be part of something.
Dementia, Parkinson's, arthritis, mobility issues… to name just a few… are all things that some of our clients deal with here.
And that's absolutely fine with us.
And believe me, we celebrate the little things around here! 🎉
Although… I should probably mention that while we are very good at celebrating, we are also very good at chatting, laughing, singing slightly out of tune and occasionally being told to “stop talking and get on with it!” 😂
But that's Silver Strength.
We work hard, we laugh harder and we always encourage each other. And somehow, amongst all that chaos, we get stronger too.
Because around here, nobody needs to be perfect. They just need to turn up… and preferably remember where they put their water bottle. 😂 That's Silver Strength. ❤️

Well its the last day of our celebration week and Ive had a lovley time celebrating you all.
Just know that I am proud of you all for turning up each and every week. Thank you.
Today we celebrate Geoff.
Geoff describes the exercises as taxing — and believe me, I know exactly what he means! 😂 But despite finding them challenging, he keeps coming back, keeps working hard and, most importantly, keeps enjoying himself along the way. Geoff still struggles with his balance, but that certainly doesn’t stop him. Every single week he gives his absolute best and never gives up. His determination honestly makes me so incredibly proud. Geoff is also a true old-fashioned gentleman — and there really aren’t many of those left these days! He is kind, polite, thoughtful and just an absolute pleasure to have in our Silver Strength family.
Geoff, I hope you know just how proud I am of you. Keep going, keep trying and keep being you.

Celebration week continuesToday it’s the turn of my Thursday crew! I could not pick between these lot. And as you can see… there’s quite a few of them! This is such a lovely mixed group, with some members needing a little more encouragement or help than others — and what I absolutely love is that they are always there to step up for each other. They help each other, encourage each other, cheer each other on and celebrate each other’s little wins. And boy, do they work hard! Of course… they also chat WAY too much 😂, get told off more than any other group 🙈 and regularly give me a hard time!
But honestly… I wouldn't have them any other way. They make me laugh, they make me proud and they make Thursday mornings what they are. It’s not just about getting stronger physically — it’s about having a group of people who look out for one another, support each other and make everyone feel like they belong. I’m so proud of every single one of you. Keep working hard, keep supporting each other… and maybe just try to talk a little less! 😂😂
My Thursday troublemakers… I wouldn’t swap you for the world!

Celebration week.Today it’s the turn of one very special lady… our lovely Tinkerbell! Aka Anita🧚‍♀️
And honestly, … she really does look like Tinkerbell, doesn’t she?! 😂🧚‍♀️
Anita is one of those people who walks into class with the biggest smile, always happy, always positive and always ready to give it her best. But what makes this lady so special is the way she supports everyone around her. She encourages others, helps where she can and is always there for me too — even though she has her own struggles to deal with. ❤️
She never lets those struggles stop her from bringing her lovely energy into the room. And I think that says so much about the person she is. I absolutely loved receiving this message from her. She said she always feels good after coming to class and honestly, that is exactly why I do what I do. 🥰
Tinkerbell, you are a little ray of sunshine, a proper Silver Strength star and someone I am incredibly grateful to have in my classes. ⭐️
Thank you for always smiling, always supporting and for being YOU.
You really are very special. 💕🧚‍♀️
Now… I’m just wondering whether I need to start calling you Tinkerbell officially! 😂😂

Celebration week continues today we celebrate Rae. Rae is amazing, her fitness has improved so much, and she feels much more confident when walking. She even practises at home with lunging and those rather impressive tippy-toe bridal walks down the hallway! 😂👰‍♀️
But Rae's achievements aren't just about her own progress. Rae is one of those people who makes other people feel welcome. ❤️
She is always smiling, welcomes new members with open arms and is so encouraging to the people around her. She never makes anyone feel like they're struggling on their own. She cheers others on, gives encouragement and reminds everyone that it's about trying and not giving up, no matter how hard something feels.
And that is exactly what Silver Strength is all about.
You don't have to be the strongest.
You don't have to get every exercise right.
You don't even have to let me count properly… apparently! 🤣
You just have to keep trying, keep moving and keep showing up.
Rae, thank you for being such a positive, welcoming and encouraging part of our Silver Strength family. We are so lucky to have you! Keep smiling, keep moving and keep doing what you do, Rae. 🌟
We are very proud of you! ❤️👏

This week at Silver Strength we are celebrating YOU — your achievements, your progress and all those little things you may not even realise you are doing differently. ❤️
Today I want to celebrate one of my Monday stars…Anita has been with me pretty much from day one, and she has always worked so incredibly hard in class. She is determined to do her very best every single time she walks through that door — and I absolutely love that about her. But what makes me especially proud is seeing how Anita takes what we work on in class and uses it in her everyday life.And Anita doesn't just keep all this Silver Strength goodness to herself… oh no! She has also brought along her husband Peter, who now joins us for Tuesday's Move It class. Peter, of course, attends reluctantly… apparently. He definitely doesn't enjoy it!! Well, that's what we're going with anyway! 😂 Peter is an absolute star and it's lovely having both of them as part of the Silver Strength family. Anita, you should be incredibly proud of yourself. Progress isn't about being perfect. It's about keeping going. 🌟
And that's exactly what you do. Well done, Anita! This is what Celebration Week is all about — celebrating the people who turn up, put the effort in, support each other and show us that exercise really can make a difference.

🌟 CELEBRATION WEEK! 🌟
Happy Sunday, Silver Strength crew! 💪❤️
This week is all about celebrating YOU. 🎉
We’re going to celebrate your wins, the progress you’ve made since walking through those doors, the things you can do now that you couldn’t do before, and most importantly… how much better you feel!
Whether it’s getting stronger, feeling steadier on your feet, having more confidence, being able to get up and down more easily, improving your balance, or simply having the courage to keep showing up — every achievement matters.
And this week I want us to share those stories.
Let’s show people what exercise can really do.
Let’s show what falls prevention, strength and balance training can achieve.
Let’s show that getting older or having limitations doesn’t mean giving up — it means finding the right support and keeping moving.
Because sometimes people just need to see someone like them doing it before they believe they can do it too.
So get ready to shout about your achievements this week! 📣
Your story might just inspire someone else to take that first step through the door.
Let’s celebrate how far you’ve come. 🥳
You should be incredibly proud of yourselves.

I started Silver Strength because I wanted to make a difference. I wanted to create something for people who wanted — and needed — to exercise, Somewhere inclusive and supportive. And just look at what we have created. I honestly couldn't be prouder of every single one of you. I can open the doors, put the music on, plan the sessions and give you the exercises — but you choose to walk through those doors. You choose to turn up. You choose to keep going. And you choose to work hard. And every week, you show me strength, bravery, determination and a willingness to try. Chair-based exercise and falls prevention aren't about what you can't do. They're about discovering what you can do — safely, effectively and with a whole lot of fun along the way! I can help you. And I will always do everything I can to help you. But it all starts with you. So Keep turning up. Keep trying. Because look at what happens when you do.
This is Silver Strength. 💪
