Wellness & Exercise for Seniors
We partner with Symbria to provide a unique exercise and wellness program specifically designed for seniors. Also known as SeniorFITness™, the Well-Being program offers one-on-one fitness instruction, exercise classes, and education sessions that enable seniors to stay fit, build strength and prolong their independence. This program is available to our residents at no extra cost. Working hand-in-hand with residents' physicians, the Well-Being team will design a personalized fitness program to meet the abilities of each participant.
"I know I am stronger, have better balance and am healthier because of my participation in the program."

Using state-of-the-art technology to improve mobility & maintain independence
Our Well-Being specialists use state-of-the-art technology to develop each participant's fitness plan. KAMS Independent Living functional movement screen, by Kinetisense, incorporates motion capture technology and advanced machine learning to power the assessment tool. This 5-minute assessment provides information on the individual's gait, balance, and functional movements, including any deficiencies in their range of motion that may indicate a fall risk.
Using the data gathered from the KAMS screening, our fitness specialists create a tailored exercise plan for each resident. Fellowship Square is the only senior living community in Arizona that utilizes this technology in its exercise and wellness program.
The feedback from residents who have participated has been encouraging, and they have seen considerable improvement in their endurance and mobility.
