Fitness:

I'm keen on aquarobics (water aerobics), although I disagree with it being promoted as "for the over 50s"!  It's great for any age, fab for the overweight and those with poor levels of fitness and terrific during pregnancy.  Following is a schedule I recently found in the local newspaper (so please check for accuracy):

Also there's good research proving that TAI CHI QI GONG is fantastic for older people as it gently improves balance, mobility and breathing as well as general well-being.  A 2008 research review by Wang et al of Tufts Medical Centre concludes that it's good for people suffering from knee osteoarthritis.
