Olde Forge provides a wide range of community support services for seniors in Ottawa. The services include Footcare, Day and Luncheon Programs, Home Help and Home Maintenance and Home Visits.
Please Note: To help support the city of Ottawa's physical distancing restrictions, the Olde Forge has modified and enhanced some of it's programs and services at this time.
The Olde Forge Programs provides barrier-free, low cost recreational and physical fitness activities, social and educational programming to local seniors 60+ and adults with disabilities who want to maintain their independence in the community by keeping socially connected and/or keeping physically active.
There are a wide range of activities offered during the week at a variety of locations.
Barb completed a 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training at Elation Centre Yoga. Her training consisted of practices in the following techniques: Asana, Pranayama, Yogic Lifestyle, Ethics and Philosophy. She also completed additional training to specialize in teaching Chair Yoga for seniors. For the past 8 years, Barb has taught seniors at community centers and retirement Homes. She believes in encouraging participants to engage in their emotional and physical well-being, and in teaching proper alignment, core work, stretches, breathing exercises (pranayama), and meditation. She also likes to share short readings that have inspired her, with a hope to inspire the group’s overall sense of well-being as they move on with their daily lives.
