Want to optimize your wellness? The Palisades at Broadmoor Park has partnered with the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs (UCCS) to provide opportunities that will help you stay as engaged, active, and healthy as you want to be.
Keep Moving: Be Active for Life Wellness
“Use it or lose it” has proven to be true for people of all ages! UCCS Health Science faculty and students can help you stay active while you have fun doing whatever you enjoy. Our focus is on stamina, strength, balance and flexibility, so you can meet with a personal trainer and tailor a program just for you. Are you a person who is “on the move,” or are you one who only wants to move if you can be with others who make it fun? Are you a golfer? Gardener? Choose activities that keep you moving at your pace! We look forward to supporting your favorite ways to Be Active for Life.
Keep Smart: Live with a Sense of Purpose Cognitive Fitness
The experiences of a lifetime prepared you to know who you are and how you want to stay engaged with life. The Palisades offers opportunities to challenge your mind, engage with your community, create a new hobby or work on a lifelong passion. Do you enjoy reading a book or poetry, planting an herb garden or dancing to the tunes of your youth? Perhaps you are passionate about children’s literacy, music for all ages or surfing the Web. You can also stop by The Cafe to plan a day fishing or an afternoon at the Fine Arts Center, or just spend time with your friends catching up on the day’s activities! Quite simply, The Palisades is designed to encourage you to relax, give back to the community, or enjoy this lovely region.
