The Jiga Joga Senior Programme aims to promote active ageing while maintaining the autonomy and quality of life of seniors, through a holistic approach that integrates body, mind and emotion. The activities aim to develop psychomotor skills such as coordination, balance and strength, which are essential for preventing limitations such as falls. Gerontopsychomotricity also works on cognitive and emotional aspects, stimulating memory, attention and manual dexterity. Group participation contributes to socialisation, preventing isolation and promoting emotional well-being, helping to identify and treat conditions such as depression and anxiety.
