Minds in Motion ®
Social & Recreational Programs
Thanks to the generosity of the Ontario Trillium Foundation, the Alzheimer Society Waterloo
Wellington is expanding the number of Minds in Motion ® locations across Waterloo Wellington.
Minds in Motion ® is a community-based social program that incorporates physical activity and
mental stimulation for people with early to mid-stage signs of Alzheimer’s disease or other
dementias and their care partners. Participants are asked to bring a bottle of water to each
session. The 2-hour program runs once a week for 6-8 weeks and offers:
• Gentle and easy to follow physical activities led by a certified fitness instructor; and
• Fun social activities focused on building personal skills.
Pre-registration is required, please contact the Alzheimer Society by calling 519-742-1422.
Suggested donation: $60.00

“Both my Mom and Dad are transformed when they
are at this simple yet effective program. Minds in
Motion ® gives them a place to not only engage in
physical activity but also develop a supportive social
network with others in the group.”
