Jeanette's Message
Happy Superbowl Sunday! I have a feeling that many of you won't be reading this email until Monday or later. :-) If you're a football fan, I hope that you enjoy the game and are happy with the outcome! I don't have a favorite team this time around, but I do love the exuberant spirit and togetherness that this beloved sport evokes in so many of us this time of year. Whether you're a football fan or not, I wish blessings of safety and good fun for you and your loved ones. Let me also take this time to wish you a Happy Valentines Day.

Class News
Wow! The recent trial Chair Aerobics class in  San Rafael had a fantastic turnout! I love the enthusiastic response that we had, and I'm really looking forward to launching our first Goldenaires Chair Aerobics session: Feb 6 - Feb 27, 2012. This moderate, seated class is for seniors 62+ who want to improve their health and well being, but are not currently able to participate in my more vigorous exercise classes. Click here for more info. The lovely gal in the photo is Margaret Friedman, who currently attends my Novato Chair Aerobics Class at the Margaret Todd Senior Center. At 92, she's one amazing woman and has been attending various Youthful Hearts classes since 1994!
Newest Workout DVD
I'm happy to offer my newest Still Going Strong DVD, home workout #4, geared toward the active boomer and senior generations. It includes a full hour workout plus an express workout, with exercises to optimize strength, balance and flexibility, exactly what we tend to lose as we age unless we do what we need to do to prevent or reverse it. Click here for more info or call me at (707) 642-3603.
In my last newsletter issue I announced a drawing for a free copy of this new workout dvd. Congratulations to Camille Scontrino--the lucky winner!
