Elissa discovered GetSetUp at a time when connection and activity were hard to come by.
“I found out about GetSetUp five years ago during the pandemic through an email from the Rhode Island Aging Services,” she shared. “I joined a memoir class, and I loved it. It was great during the pandemic because it gave me something to do, and I would write the memoir and then we would meet virtually once a week.”
What started as a creative outlet soon became a vital part of Elissa’s weekly rhythm.
After a short break, she returned and found more to love: “A couple of years ago, I went back and found a Spanish class that I enjoy, and I do that most of the time now, along with the community sessions.”
Living in Rhode Island means snowstorms can easily interrupt a daily routine, but Elissa has a backup plan.
“I belong to a senior center that is private and non-profit, and I’m usually there almost every day. But we have terrible snow and cold,” she said. “So I’ve been doing more classes on GetSetUp.”
From yoga to watercolor and tech classes, she’s made her wellness a priority even from home.
“I took yoga and some of the other exercise ones,” she said. “I like taking Twyla’s [exercise and nutrition] classes, I really like her. Anytime I’m home, and she has a class, I take it. She teaches at 10 AM Eastern time.”
Her health and wellness routine has remained strong.
“GetSetUp has helped me learn Spanish, and the yoga and exercise have helped me in general to stay healthy. At my center, I take a weight class, but when those sessions are closed, I’m glad to have GetSetUp.”
Elissa also explored GetSetUp’s technology classes, particularly around devices she already owned.
“I took a couple of classes on the Apple Watch,” she said. “That was a big help because when I got the watch, I didn’t know all the things it could do.”
Whether live or on-demand, she appreciates the platform’s flexibility:
“I usually watch on my laptop. It depends on the time I have—live and on-demand sessions.”
One of her favorite aspects of the platform is how it enables real community: “In my Spanish class, I know the people, and we see each other weekly. One person I met through GetSetUp—I even saw her at a music event in person!”
While Elissa has already learned a lot, she hopes GetSetUp continues expanding into deeper discussions and educational topics.
“I would like to see more intellectual things like the memoir classes, French classes, reading groups, literature, and music appreciation,” she said. “Discussion groups on news articles would be wonderful.”
Still, Elissa’s grateful for the choices and accessibility the platform already provides.
“I’m very glad we have GetSetUp. It’s been a godsend with the bad weather, and it gives different choices. There are a lot of different options.”
