A fitness program designed for seniors that will be low impact, focusing on cardiovascular endurance, strength, flexibility and balance.

Led by Staci Fouts. Staci is about empowering the individual through knowledge of fitness and health.

This class will have no floor work, participants can use chairs to assist with balance, and will play 80s and Disco music to pump up the room!

Participants will need to bring at least two weights - no more than 5 lbs. These can be found at Walmart and any sporting goods store.

Saturdays 10:00 - 10:45 AM

Balance, strength and flexibility are important, especially as we age. In this class, designed for 55+, we will use a combination of movement, exercises, hand weights and resistance bands to help strengthen and tone all areas of the body and work to increase balance. The instructor is a certified ISSA trainer and will add music to make the class motivating. 

You will be registering for a month of classes at a time.  

Bring 3# hand weights and an exercise mat if you have them. A limited number of extra weights and mats will be available.
