Have you or a loved one been diagnosed with dementia?
Seeking a gym to boost your brain?
Join Fit Minds!
At Bon Jour Social & Leisure Center, we go beyond traditional senior activities to provide an enriching experience that fosters cognitive health. Our Fit Minds program is designed specifically for individuals with mild cognitive impairment and dementia, focusing on neuroplasticity—the brain’s ability to adapt and grow.
Each session incorporates:
✅ Computation exercises to stimulate problem-solving skills
✅ Language discussions to enhance communication and memory
✅ Hands-on spatial relations activities to boost reasoning and perception
If your loved one attends Bon Jour for the full day, they will benefit from two hours of Fit Minds programming—a level of cognitive engagement unmatched by other senior centers.
📅 Sessions run Monday – Thursday at 11:30 AM and 1:30 PM
Help yourself or a loved one maintain and strengthen their cognitive abilities in a warm, engaging environment. Reserve your spot today!
Customized cognitive stimulation exercises tailored to individual abilities, fostering a positive relationship with your coach, enhancing quality of life, and providing monthly reports to family on the senior’s cognitive functioning and engagement.
The Personal Trainer for the Mind™ program goes beyond simple memorization and repetitive games. It leverages research showing that regularly challenging individuals with new content can help maintain and potentially improve cognitive abilities.
Fit Minds offers life-changing mental stimulation that benefits both seniors and their families. Our unique programs cater to various cognitive abilities, from independent seniors to those with dementia, promoting a compassionate approach to care.
