This spring, new programs appeared in Moscow longevity centers, as well as a single calendar with a schedule of all classes. This was reported by Anastasia Rakova, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Social Development.
“In our Moscow Longevity Centers, we create all the conditions for senior residents so that they can not only have an interesting time, but also actively take care of their health – physical, cognitive and emotional. These are spaces that are organized according to a single principle and equipped with everything necessary – from gyms and culinary studios to libraries and media rooms with computers. Less than a month ago, together with the Federal Medical and Biological Agency of Russia, we launched a unique program to preserve cognitive functions and psycho-emotional health for residents of the “silver” age. More than 20 thousand people have already signed up for classes. To make it easier for participants to plan intellectual and sports leisure, we decided to introduce new areas of classes and a single schedule in the Moscow Longevity Centers to make leisure planning even more convenient,” said Anastasia Rakova.
“Longevity Charging” and Smart Training
The schedule was designed to take into account the life rhythms and needs of older Muscovites: physical activity in the morning, intellectual and educational activities in the afternoon, and a cultural program in the evening. New features in the unified calendar of activities include daily exercises and rhythmic exercises, as well as smart workouts called “Let’s Go and Listen!”. Participants can exercise while listening to fascinating lectures, audiobooks, podcasts, or music.
The schedule covers all areas important for maintaining activity and interest in life in old age: from physical education and health to culture and communication. Every morning at the centers begins with the “Longevity Charging” training. At 10:00, classes are held with elements of breathing exercises, stretching, joint yoga and techniques for developing balance. At 11:15, participants are treated to rhythmics – dance movements to music that help not only maintain physical fitness, but also charge themselves with a good mood.
From 09:00 to 20:00, the centers conduct smart training sessions called “Let’s go and listen!”: you can exercise on cardio equipment while listening to lecture recordings, audiobooks, and podcasts. The authors of the audio recordings include neurophysiologist Tatyana Chernigovskaya, actor Yuri Stoyanov, and writer and psychologist Tatyana Muzhitskaya. The schedule alternates 30-minute blocks, as well as music and meditative audio tracks.
Computer Literacy and Health Schools
Every day from 12:00 to 14:00, the centers are visited by MFC employees who help participants in the Moscow Longevity project receive the necessary government services without waiting and queues. Every Thursday at 09:30, specialists from government service centers also conduct classes on digital literacy. They explain how to use the mos.ru portal and other online services.
From Monday to Thursday, doctors from city clinics conduct classes in health, osteoporosis and diabetes schools. The topics are disease prevention, healthy lifestyle and nutrition.
Neurotraining and neurocorrection
In addition, the schedule has already included courses of the new program for maintaining cognitive skills and psycho-emotional health: “Neurotraining of cognitive skills” and “Neurocorrection of the psycho-emotional state”. Classes are held daily: neurotraining – from 14:00 to 20:00, neurocorrection – from 10:00 to 18:00. Participants work on a computer or with neuroheadsets under the supervision of specialists. This helps to develop memory, reduce anxiety, improve sleep and concentration. Both courses were developed by the Federal Center for Brain and Neurotechnology of the Federal Medical and Biological Agency (FMBA) of Russia. Senior citizens are accompanied by employees of Moscow Longevity Centers who have undergone special training at the Center for Cognitive and Psychoemotional Health of the FMBA of Russia. To take the courses, you must first register.
Performances and lectures
Cultural leisure is also popular. From Monday to Friday, video performances are shown and lectures on culture and art are held, and every Wednesday at 6:00 pm, a film club is open. You can visit it in person at the Presnensky Center or online, connecting to the broadcast from other centers. Here, films and TV series are discussed with experts in the field of cinema.
The formats for communication and intellectual leisure are preserved. On Thursdays from 19:00 to 20:30 there is a quiz game club, where participants compete in logic and erudition. Board games are available during the day.
You can check the schedule of classes at your center and sign up in person at the Moscow Longevity Centers oron the websiteAll Muscovites over 55 years of age can visit the centers.
In total, there are more than 140 Moscow Longevity Centers in the capital. They are located in almost all areas of the city and have convenient transport access. Each center is a stylish and modern club space with free access for Muscovites aged 55 and older. Here you can always play sports, play chess and billiards, join culinary master classes, learn to sew and draw, master the computer, listen to useful lectures and chat with like-minded people in one of 6.5 thousand thematic clubs. And also – celebrate your birthday or another holiday with friends and family.
The Moscow Longevity project is being implemented within the framework of the regional project Older Generation national project “Family” to increase the period of active longevity and healthy life expectancy in the capital. It is aimed at expanding opportunities for older people to participate in cultural, educational, sports and other city events.
