It is well known that an active and healthy lifestyle improves well-being across the lifespan. What is sometimes less often talked about is how important it is not to risk leaving it too late.

The story of how the Renaissance band kept residents entertained

Renaissance residents discover an ancient form of movement

Pat Warburton and her husband Ken moved to Renaissance Retirement Living at Victoria Point 12 years ago. It didn’t take long for Pat to join the Tai Chi group. Tai Chi is a practice involving a series of slow, gentle movements and postures. Participants reach a meditative state of mind, and practice controlled breathing. Often described as ‘meditation in motion,’ Tai Chi has also been referred to as ‘medication in motion’ thanks to its numerous health benefits.

Should you choose a house, apartment, or retirement village?

So you’ve retired from permanent work. Congratulations! The kids have left home… the alarm clock has been permanently shelved. Your schedule is free (or as free as you want it to be). You might be walking around your home thinking, “Goodness, we have a lot of space!”

Why the Renaissance Croquet Group is a big hit!

The Croquet Group at Renaissance Retirement Living started in the early days of the village, and has been steadily running ever since. Trevor Shinners started playing four years ago and stepped up into his role of coordinator the following year.
