FITNESS CLASSES
Free to all Members!!

Spin
An indoor stationary cycling class that combines basic cycling movements with motivational coaching, breathing awareness, and heart rate training. This non-impact, individually paced, cardio class will definitely move you! Spinning classes provide an intense cardio workout while still catering to participants of all fitness levels. Core work is incorporated in the form of planks and other options. Our instructor will lead you through a challenging series of courses to maximize your caloric burn. The best part is that you control your own resistance and speed allowing you to continuously progress forward from your current fitness level. (45 mins-1 hr). Taught by Buddy Lemmons on Monday mornings @ 8 am; Mon, Wed and Thursday nights around 6 pm.
Step & Cardio
Done to upbeat music, step aerobics is a form of aerobic power distinguished from other types of aerobic exercise by its use of an elevated platform (the step). The height can be tailored to individual needs by inserting risers under the step. Taught by Joaquin Rangel around 5:15/5:30 pm, 4 times per week. Step aerobics helps burn calories and fat. It also helps to reduce stress, promote restful sleep, strengthen muscles and gives the body a more streamlined appearance. The number of calories burned depends on the speed of movements, step height, and length of exercise. Step aerobics is suitable for all ages. (60 minutes). The Cardio class is at 8 am on Tuesdays & Thursdays, and taught by Joaquin as well.


Silver Sneakers
Silver Sneakers classes focus on strengthening muscles and increasing range of motion for daily life activities. Taught by Melanie Downey and Paige Downey. Participants will use hand-held weights (weights based on what you can hold), elastic bands with handles and a Silver Sneakers ball. Although tailored toward senior citizens, all ages are welcome to participate. 9:00 am on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
Our Yoga instructor, John, also provides “Chair Yoga” as a Silver Sneakers offering every Friday at 10 am.

HIIT Bootcamps (HIIT = High Intensity Interval Training)
Every Wednesday at 7:00 am, sometimes outside. We also offer bootcamps every Saturday around 7:30 am. Some Saturdays we offer the opportunity to run “The Murph”; subject to change because of temperature, weather and other commitments. Bootcamp sessions typically last 30 minutes, but would translate to over an hour of most people’s typical workouts. Great for aerobic capacity, cardio/heart health along with functional strength. Taught by Matthew Downey. Matthew also teaches the Mobility class Tuesday mornings at 7 am and John teaches the Ab/Core class Thursday mornings at 7 am.
