Dorothy Senise
Dorothy has been teaching since 1994.She is a qualified group exercise instructor for older adults. She started working with SHARE in 1994 and has found it very rewarding – the participants are very grateful and form a social connection with other participants. She still has participants exercising with her for over 10 years or more. Dorothy has said “SHARE is a great organisation to work for – who offer the community a great service. Different from a gym, and rewarding for an instructor – who sees the participants getting fitter stronger and giving them longevity. Friendships are formed and it becomes a second family.”
