Brazil's Secretaria da Mulher launches Core & Movimento class for women 40+
The Women's Secretariat (Secretaria da Mulher) in Brazil has introduced a new fitness program called “Core & Movimento for Women 40+” at Espaço 360° in the city centre. Classes are offered every Monday and Wednesday from 10:00 to 11:00.
The weekly session is designed for women aged 40 and above and focuses on strengthening the core muscle group—including abdomen, lumbar region, pelvis and hips—to improve posture, balance, mobility and to lower the risk of falls. Participants are also taught body awareness techniques to promote overall well‑being. Promised benefits include stronger core muscles, better posture and balance, increased flexibility, prevention of musculoskeletal pain, greater stability for daily activities, improved general conditioning and enhanced physical and emotional health.
The initiative forms part of the Secretariat’s broader effort to provide preventive‑health activities for mature women. Registration information is available via phone or WhatsApp.
