A fresh, fun, do-able approach to AgingStrong.

I really believe that your best, most adventurous, strongest years can be ahead of you. And it can be simpler (and more fun) than you think. I'll show you how to TAKE CHARGE of the AGE STRONG process at this rejuvenating Health & Wellness Retreat at beautiful Chautauqua Institution, NY.

LODGING: We are pleased to provide accommodations at The Maple Inn, just steps away from Bestor Plaza, the center of CHQ. A private room is inlcuded with your all-inclusive registration. Each room is equipped with a kitchenette, WiFi, TV, and a private bath. If you wish to extend your stay beyond the retreat dates, please make arrangements with Maple Inn by phoning (716)357-4583.

TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR POSTURE

We'll begin and end each day of this retreat with a restorative "Posture Flow" workout...a 15-20 minute flow of my favorite Egoscue exercises to unwind, align, and engage from head to toe. It's a wonderful way to recruit the deep layer of muscles that help us move better, feel better, and look better..at any age!
TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR HORMONES

Have you heard of "inflamm-aging?" It refers to the rapid acceleration of the aging process due to prolonged inflammation and stress at the cellular level. I'll show you how to manage & manipulate the 2 hormones (cortisol and growth hormone) that can reverse this - naturally - with my favorite AgeStrong habits.

TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR NUTRITION

Research shows that the world's healthiest people are the ones with the healthiest guts. Learn how to nourish your gut microbiome (and your longevity) with my AgeStrong menu and hands-on meal prep. Your meals and snacks are included in this retreat and are guaranteed to be tasty :) *NOTE: individual dietary requirements cannot be accommodated.
TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR EXERCISE

Let's face it. We all like to do the exercises and activities that we're familiar with. But are they helping? Or are they hurting? My AgeStrong training plan builds muscle, strength, and cardiovascular health in just 20 minutes/day. We will have fun doing this workout together using body weight, resistance bands, and everyday objects.

CANCELATION POLICY: May 2024 retreat registration fees are refundable, less a $200 processing fee, through April 5, 2024. After April 5, 2024, your registration fee (less a $200 processing fee) may be credited to another AgeStrong service of equal value. Refund credits expire on December 31, 2024.

The Health and Wellness retreat was excellent. Laura is an enthusiastic guide and facilitator who exemplifies what she teaches. You will leave energized.

Anyone 55+ would benefit from this retreat. The information and conversations shared were uplifting, motivating, and affirming.

The group shared positive and supportive energy in this retreat, which was filled with laughs, learning, and comradery. We came as 25 strangers and left as friends.

Laura is a gifted workshop leader. She has a vast knowledge base and creates a safe, cohesive group dynamic that facilitates a productive, fun learning environment!

A quick hello from your host:

This is going to be so fun!

I've designed this retreat using decades of professional experience as a health/wellness coach and my personal commitment to the "AgeStrong" lifestyle. My coaching approach was inspired at age 8 by Johanna Spyri’s heroine, Heidi (really!), and focuses on the basics of good food, good movement, and helping my clients overcome their individual barriers to success. I especially enjoy working with people like myself with “over 50” bodies and “under 40” attitudes, who have a lifelong quest for health and adventure. I have a psychology degree from State University of New York at Stony Brook and a master’s degree in exercise physiology from Queens College, as well as certifications from the National Athletic Trainers’ Association (Athletic Trainer, Certified), National Strength and Conditioning Association (Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist), National Academy of Sports Medicine (Fitness Nutrition Specialist) and Egoscue Institute (Posture Alignment Specialist).

The best part of my job is bringing years of education and research to life - to help you TAKE CHARGE of your health - in a friendly, supportive environment. I'd love to have you join me at the retreat!

~Laura
