Fitness is part of the culture at St. James Place

Gone are the days when fitness and exercise were considered something "extra." It's now considered by most of our residents as something "essential."

The menu of fitness activities continues to grow and evolve, according to our residents' interests and needs. At present it includes the following:

Experts in fitness programs for older adults, they can design one specifically for you. After that, you can choose to work under their supervision or on your own, any time day or night. The fitness center includes free weights, weight machines, treadmills, exercise bikes, Nustep machines, and more.
• Exercise classes Chose from classes to improve your balance, your strength, or your endurance. You can take Tai Chi, water aerobics, or our newest class "walk 'n talk" to kick off your individual walking program.
• Group activities Dozens of residents enjoy competitive and sociable sports, both indoors and out.
• Golf Course membership St. James Place has an agreement with a nearby private golf course, so that residents enjoy a reduced membership fee which (in addition to golf) includes tennis courts and a lap pool.
