"I am delighted that the 9.30 am, home program will be continuing. It is proving to be a very valuable program for me, thank you. At my age I am not doing high kicks, but I am moving my feet and hopefully improving my balance and general movement. The Wednesday session adds just so much to my general feeling of wellbeing, many thanks." Thelma.
