What is Healthy-Steps?
Healthy-Steps is an effective therapeutic program of exercise and movement to music
originally designed for women who had experienced breast cancer, but proven to benefit
seniors and individuals with chronic health conditions who want to stay fit.
It was developed by Sherry Lebed Davis, a professional dancer and choreographer,
along with Dr. Marc Lebed and Dr. Joel Lebed in 1979. It is a medically sound program
first implemented by Albert Einstein Medical Center in Philadelphia, PA, 1980.
