Introduction: Hypertension is a global health problem, due to its high frequency of occurrence and high risk of developing heart and blood vessel disease. One of the efforts or interventions to control high blood pressure in the community is to provide health education about controlling high blood pressure, and high blood pressure exercise to reduce blood pressure. Objective: To determine the effectiveness of providing health education and hypertension exercise in reducing blood pressure in patients with hypertension. Methods: Pre-experimental with one-group pre-post test design. The sample in this study was an adult community with hypertension, a total of 42 respondents were taken using simple random sampling. The statistical test used a paired sample t test with a value of = 0.05. Results: 54.8% of public knowledge related to hypertension had increased, 50.0% of public attitudes related to hypertension had increased, 71.4% of people's blood pressure with hypertension had decreased and p value = 0.000. Conclusion: Health education and hypertension exercise can reduce blood pressure in hypertensive patients. It is expected that nurses can provide health education and teach hypertension exercise to reduce blood pressure in hypertensive patients. Latar belakang: Hipertensi merupakan masalah kesehatan global, karena frekuensi kejadiannya yang tinggi dan berisiko menyebabkan penyakit jantung dan pembuluh darah. Salah satu upaya atau intervensi untuk mengendalikan tekanan darah di masyarakat dengan memberikan pendidikan kesehatan tentang tata cara mengendalikan tekanan darah serta senam hipertensi untuk mengontrol tekanan darah. Tujuan: Mengetahui efektivitas pendidikan kesehatan dan senam hipertensi dalam menurunkan tenakan darah pada klien hipertensi. Metode: Pre-eksperimen dengan one group pre-post test design. Sampel dalam penelitian ini adalah masyarakat usia dewasa yang mengalami hipertensi, dengan total responden sebanyak 42 orang yang diambil menggunakan simple random sampling. Uji statistik menggunakan paired sample t test dengan p value 0,05. Hasil: 54,8% pengetahuan masyarakat terkait hipertensi meningkat, 50% sikap masyarakat terkait pengendalian hipertensi meningkat, 71,4% tekanan darah klien hipertensi dapat diturunkan dengan p value 0,000.
