Dr. Amy Bantham is founder of Move to Live More, an organization dedicated to building bridges between healthcare, the fitness industry, and community organizations to help more people live healthier, more active lives. Amy is the Past President of the Physical Activity Alliance, a certified health and wellness coach, personal trainer, and group fitness instructor, and holds a Doctor of Public Health from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.
We explore how the language we use shapes beliefs about aging and movement, why phrases like "exercise keeps you young" can do more harm than good, and how we can shift the conversation from fear and decline to strength, confidence, and possibility.
We also discuss what really keeps people coming back to movement programs. Spoiler alert: it's rarely the workout itself. It's the relationships, the laughter, and the sense of belonging.
From simple ways to build social connection into your classes to rethinking how we talk about falls, strength, and confidence, this conversation provides practical ideas for movement leaders and anyone passionate about creating healthier communities.
