The people who coach and created these offerings have a different vision for what we can be doing regardless of our age. Their classes are communicating you are not too old, it’s not too late and this is where you can come to do these things. It’s their vote of confidence and belief in the physical capabilities of adults.
We don’t know who we are until we see what we can do. –Martha Grimes
Once something new and unique is offered to our age demographic it can intrigue us to try something we may not have considered before. When we do something we’ve never done before it forces us to rethink what we’re capable of. Uncovering our potential can lead to having a curiosity about what else we can accomplish. What boundaries and perceptions do we impose on ourselves that should be tested?
When was the last time you surprised yourself with abilities?
