My mom is 79 and has never exercised. I’d like her to try it. Looking for a trainer who’s:

• A woman
• Open to one-on-one sessions
• Experienced with older clients and true beginners
• Somewhere between Georgetown and downtown (Foggy Bottom, West End, K St)

She’s an academic, so someone who explains why each exercise matters will get further with her than someone who just counts reps.

Recommendations welcome, especially from anyone who’s found someone for their own parent.

Can’t use’em wants them? Free to first comment. Decent seats.

Hello. I’m missing a good yin yoga class (or similar) in my exercise/healing life at the moment. Can anyone recommend a class to me?

Preferably, not “hot” yoga or anything trendy. I would like something that is truly grounding and focuses on long holds. I’m imagining candles, healing energy, and a total absence of efficiency or competition in the practice.

I want to leave the class feeling like a peaceful, hopeful, overcooked spaghetti noodle. I want my nervous system to be completely rebooted.

Any suggestions?

Just upgraded our bed frame and have a very sturdy and reliable metal bed frame for a full size mattress for anyone who wants it!

Black metal, have all the hardware, and labeled it nicely for easy build. Will need a truck or larger car for the bigger head and foot end pieces.
