Michael first joined our weekly exercise classes with one goal in mind - to improve his balance. Rather than returning to the gym, he was looking for a supportive environment where he could exercise with confidence and work towards staying active for longer.
What he didn't expect was everything that came with it. Along the way, he's made new friends, discovered other activities through Barossa Village, and become part of a welcoming community that keeps him coming back each week.
His advice? Give it a go. You never know where that first step might lead!
What's something you've tried that turned out to be about so much more than you expected?

Every community has someone who seems to know everyone, loves a good chat, and always makes people feel welcome. At The Lodge, that's our beautiful Wendy. Whether she's helping residents, greeting visitors, or answering the phone with a smile, she has a wonderful way of making people feel right at home, and that's something our community appreciates every day. Thank you Wendy!

Our weekly exercise classes give residents the opportunity to build strength, improve balance, and keep active, all while sharing a few chats and encouraging one another along the way! It's one of the many ways we help residents stay confident, independent, and connected.
How do you like to keep active each week?

Trying something new can feel daunting, especially when it's well outside your comfort zone. When Clair first joined our hydrotherapy classes, she was nervous and never considered herself a "water person." Two years later, she's not only grown in confidence but has also found some of her closest friendships through the group. What started as a way to support her hip has become one of the highlights of her week, both in and out of the pool!
What's the best thing that's ever come from stepping outside your comfort zone?
