The Denver 40+ Double Dutch Club is defying stereotypes and proving that age is just a number when it comes to staying active and having fun. Founded in 2016 in Chicago as a way to escape life’s stresses, the club now has a chapter in the Denver area where women meet weekly to engage in childhood favorites like double Dutch and hula-hooping.
Members of the club have shared stories of resilience, with one member recovering from shoulder surgery and a fractured back. Despite facing personal challenges, these women come together to not only socialize and exercise but also to support each other and the community. The club has become a source of strength and empowerment for its members, who have experienced physical and mental health benefits as a result of their involvement.
While the group primarily focuses on activities like double Dutch, hula-hooping, and line dancing, they also emphasize the importance of self-care and prioritizing oneself. Members have reported losing weight, feeling supported, and re-connecting with themselves through their participation in the club.
The Denver 40+ Double Dutch Club is actively seeking new members, encouraging women of all backgrounds and experiences to join them in their mission of promoting health, fun, and community. By sharing their stories of resilience and empowerment, the club hopes to inspire others to take charge of their own well-being and find joy in staying active and connected.
