Right about now the Super Health program is one of the best health programs available in this difficult time. I can still move my body at a healthy pace, with an instructor, and workout without worrying about coming in contact or passing on germs.

I had a hard time after my diagnosis seeing myself as a person with a disability. The most positive experience with exercise as a person with a disability was when my physical therapist explained the reasons behind the difficulty I sometimes had in walking and how I could best address each issue with specific stretches and strengthening exercises.

Daily tasks such as unloading the dishwasher and walking the dog have become easier as I feel that my coordination, balance and strength have improved.Katherine, 41 years old
M2M stopped me from lying around the house. At first it was a challenge but then I looked forward to it, and then I got stronger.Maria, 56 years old
