In the 1980s, she combined her passion for physical fitness with her extensive background in home health and hospice care to create a senior residential referral agency. Currently, she has several instructors trained in The Lori Method™, which emphasizes working with physical therapists to design programs specifically for an older clientele. She also teaches Arthritis Foundation exercise and fall prevention classes. Two of her fondest IDEA World Fitness Convention™ memories are her first year, when she took courses on senior fitness and realized it was her passion, and, later, meeting Elaine LaLanne.
