Tutor: Julie, Move It or Lose It instructor
Move It or Lose It is a gentle exercise programme designed by award-winning exercise instructor Julie Robinson to help people keep active in later life. Julie joins us at the Virtual Village Hall to host a Move It or Lose It chair-based exercise session to music.
