MARCH FITNESS PARTICIPANT OF THE MONTH!
Kim Davies - Resident of GenCare Lifestyle Scriber Gardens in Lynnwood
When did you move into the community?
September 2021
What fitness classes or programs do you attend?
I attend the Small Group Training class taught by Tracey Mackie, the Fitness Director at Scriber Gardens.
What is your biggest accomplishment since joining the Small Group Training?
Overall, I had two goals:
- To be able to walk
- To be able to ride the stationary bike
I’m excited to say I have accomplished both! Before I moved into Scriber Gardens and participated in Small Group Training, I lived alone and struggled with daily activities because of my MS. Now that I’m here and training with Tracey, I can easily do daily activities — and that makes me happy. Additionally, Tracey communicates regularly with my therapist and will continue working with me after physical therapy is over.
Lastly, I enjoy the company of other residents in the class. We laugh and actually have fun while doing the exercises! It has changed my life!
