Here is a tour of our new Christmas decor at DQ Ballroom and Fitness, followed by one of the final workouts of the year! After a year of creating free workouts for seniors, and almost 150 videos, I am finally starting to wrap this project up. I began creating these online workouts when the pandemic hit, knowing full well how disastrous any great length of inactivity would be for our Ottawa seniors. The program has been a great success, and I will leave the free videos on youtube. Please share with those who need it, and check out www.dqballroomandfitness.com for updates on the live classes.
