Wellness at Partridge Creek 2017

Henry Ford Macomb Hospitals partners with The Mall at Partridge Creek to offer several free fitness opportunities throughout the year.

Get Moving Walking Club

Our 2017 Get Moving Walking Club walking season kicked off on Monday, April 24.

Keep the walking and miles going on your own all summer long! Register your mileage at the Customer Service Center at the mall whenever you are walking or shopping. There are markers located on the brick pavers throughout the mall. Good news – one lap around the mall equals one mile!

In October, The Mall at Partridge Creek and Henry Ford Macomb Hospitals will celebrate your miles with an event including giveaways provided by the mall, its retail partners and Henry Ford Macomb Hospitals. The celebration will reward walkers in various categories, including most miles walked throughout the season.

Zumba

Zumba is an aerobic fitness program that combines Latin and international music with dance moves. Zumba routines incorporate interval training and resistance training.

Aerobic exercise reduces health risks, keeps excess pounds at bay, strengthens your heart and boosts your mood.

Yoga

Yoga is a great way to increase your strength, flexibility, balance and coordination. Class is performed at a slower pace with the needed modifications so everyone can follow. This class will focus on:

• gentle stretches
• breathing
• relaxation

Yoga helps with stress relief, strengthens and tones, and increases range of motion of the major joints. Please bring a mat to class.
