Strength Bomb
This 45 min class will combine all types of strength moves using a variety of formats and tools.
Senior Strength & Balance (60 Min)
Do you want to improve your balance? Muscular strength is essential for balance
so we concentrate on exercises that strengthen the muscles that help keep you
upright - your legs and core. These exercises improve stability and help
prevent falls. A chair is provided for each participant to provide support for
standing and seated movements. We stay seated in the final 10 minutes of class
for cool-down and stretching. A variety of equipment is used – balls, hand
weights, resistance bands, and step-over objects which keeps things interesting.
These tools are stored under the chair, out of harm’s way. For safety, we cannot
have personal belongings on the floor. We move with great attention to detail and
correct form to avoid injury; quality of movement over speed. Bring a bottle of
water, your sense of humor and wear a clean pair of supportive shoes.
Vintage Muscle Fusion (60 Min)
Would you take a vintage muscle or classic car out 4-wheeling? No, of course not!
In this total body conditioning class we move slowly and carefully, making smooth
transitions from one exercise to the next and keep things in alignment. This class
provides an opportunity to perform exercises we can’t do standing up, so most of
the time we are on the floor. Thicker training mats are available for your comfort.
Using our own body weight as well as hand and ankle weights, mini bands and
even with the large stability balls we strengthen our muscles while enjoying music
from decades past. Do interesting exercises safely at a comfortable pace and keep
your body in good condition. Dress comfortably and bring a bottle of water.
Give it a test drive!
Movement Rx 1 & 2 (45 Min)
Have fun doing a variety of movements to keep you strong, independent and
feeling good! A safe and effective workout designed to improve upper body
muscular strength and endurance. In this class we do movements to target the
chest, back, shoulders, biceps and triceps. Sometimes we work in exercises to
improve balance, too! Exercises are performed both seated and standing; a chair is
provided for seated and standing support. Hand weights, resistance bands and
medicine balls are used. Wear sturdy, clean athletic shoes and bring a bottle of
water.
Movement is Medicine!
YOGA Stretch! (60 Min)
Practice dynamic and isometric stretches to relieve tension, lower blood
pressure, improve flexibility and joint range of motion. Breathe mindfully and
connect to your body; enjoy the rejuvenating effects of yoga stretches! This
class is beneficial for everyone! Bring your own mat or use one of ours. Blocks
and straps are provided.
Pedal Pushers (30 Min)
Ride an adjustable stationary bike to improve cardiovascular function, joint mobility, burn calories and
lose body fat. We warm-up, cool down and finish by stretching beside our bikes. Learn proper bike set-
up, correct body positioning and enjoy a guided ride at varying intensities (some hills and some flats)
training at whatever level you’re comfortable with. Feel stronger, reducing stress, depression, blood
pressure and resting heart rate. This low impact cycling class is good for everyone! Start class with a full
bottle of water. Stiff soled shoes are recommended. Bikes and towels are provided.
Strength and Stretch (60 Min)
The first half of class is spent doing standing exercises. This includes various
warm-up activities and strength building movements. Training is done both
on and off the wall bars. Exercises are performed slowly with focus and
precision using body weight, resistance bands, small balls, gliders, ankle
weights and yoga straps. During the second part of the hour we move to the
floor and our attention is on lengthening and stretching our bodies. Improve
overall functionality; restore body balance and the activities of daily living
become easier. Clean athletic shoes are recommended for the first half of the
class. Footwear can be removed when we move to the floor. Bring a bottle of
water and your own mat if you’d like.
