We have two FDA-approved Micro Impact Platforms for your use:

Simply standing on a Juvent platform for 20 minutes 3 times per week (ideally) can enhance circulation, increase bone density, ease joint pain and assist in wound healing. Initially developed by NASA, the Juvent has been found to have considerable benefits for all of us! Suggested donation of $5 per use.

All programs are $10 per person, unless otherwise stated. RSVP by calling 941.383.6493 or

From the Executive Director It has been an eventful and exciting year for The Paradise Center! We have moved from The Longboat Island Chapel – our founding sponsor, to a more centrally located and easily accessible location on Longboat Key: Temple Beth Israel at 567 Bay Isles Road (just beyond the Library and Post Office). We are humbled by the generosity of both of these organizations for giving us a welcoming home while we raise money for our own building.

In the summer of 2017 we became a part of the Longboat Key Center for Healthy Living, Inc. We have now combined our governing bodies to create a truly terrific Board of Directors, led by Co-Presidents Dick Pelton and Alan Sprintz. Together, we are focused on merging our operations of medical services and social/recreational activities into one community center. This is something our community needs and deserves – a place where people can come together to enjoy one another’s company, learn new things, make new friends, and share their stories and talents in a home-away-from-home setting.

We will continue to have medical services at The Centre Shops for a few months of 2019, including Fitness Quest Physical Therapy, Center for Brain Health and JFCS, while we work hard (at the time this publication went to press) to bring new medical services, including a primary care physician and specialists to serve our residents and visitors. Meanwhile at The Paradise Center, you’ll see in the next few pages our schedule of events for October through December.

Join us! Try a class, learn about volunteer opportunities, or just drop in to say hi to Executive Assistant Mary Ann Brady and me. We’d love to meet you and tell you why Life is Better at The Paradise Center!
