The Peninsula Seniors Lecture Series is once again giving Palos Verdes homes owners an excellent opportunity to hear special speakers lecture on current topics. The lectures are held this month at Point Vicente Interpretive Center because remodeling projects are underway at Hesse Park. The Point Vicente Interpretive Center is located at 31501 Palos Verdes Drive West, in Rancho Palos Verdes. The series are always held on Wednesdays from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.
On January 19th, 2012, Nadine Bobit, named as “The Healthiest Person I Know” in an article in PULSE magazine from the Torrance Memorial Foundation, will be talking about the lessons she’s learned and how mental toughness, diet, preparation and training are keys to success and fulfillment. She is a credentialed K-12 educator, a Pilates instructor, a community activist and hard core mountain climber. She has climbed Mt. Illimani in Bolivia, Mt. Rainier, Mt. Kilimanjaro, Mt. Elbrus in Russia, and Mt. Whitney. This should be an interesting lecture and will take place in the Sunset Room of PVIC.
On January 25, 2012, Rafael Capiro, from Truth Fitness and Health located in the Peninsula Center area, will talk about fitness for the older adult. This should be an informative program regarding exercise and its effect on aging, and the type of exercise that is appropriate for seniors. As it is important to take precautions to minimize risk of injury, knowing the variables which changes with age, strength and capacity are important to help improve one’s quality of life. This will be held in the Sunset Room of PVIC.
