Specialty Program Offerings

Fitness and Mobility Exercise (FAME) Program

The FAME program is an evidence-based exercise class exercise for adults recovering from a stroke. The program is adapted from the highly successful original FAME program developed by Dr. Janice Eng at the University of British Columbia which has been shown to improve strength, balance, cardiovascular fitness, bone density and reduce falls in people recovering from a stroke.
