As part of the Silver University project of the International Engineering and Technological University, another meaningful event aimed at improving the quality of life of senior citizens, strengthening their health, and promoting an active lifestyle was successfully held at a high level. At the venue of the Municipal State Institution “Active Longevity Center of Almaty,” an informative seminar session on the topic “Active Movement – A Reliable Foundation for a Long Life” was organized with the participation of Arman Zamanbekovich Estemesov, Associate Professor of the Department of Social Sciences, Humanities and World Languages of the university, Honored Coach of the Republic of Kazakhstan, and Candidate of Pedagogical Sciences. 

              The main purpose of this informative meeting was to provide senior citizens with a scientific explanation of the positive impact of active movement on the human body, introduce effective ways of maintaining health, and promote the fundamental principles of a long and high-quality life. During the seminar, Silver University participants received comprehensive information on the importance of a healthy lifestyle, the specific features of physical activity in older age, and practical ways of effectively incorporating physical movement into daily life.

During the seminar, Arman Zamanbekovich, drawing on his many years of academic, pedagogical, and sports experience, particularly emphasized the importance of regular physical activity for maintaining vitality and полноценной жизнедеятельности.

In addition, valuable recommendations were provided on proper breathing techniques, the health benefits of walking, safe exercise practices, and lifestyle habits that contribute to longevity.

Many noted the high level of organization of the seminar and the practical value of the information presented for everyday life.
