We are slowly getting our exercise programs back up and running. I was hoping to do all classes all at once (as we have in the past), but there have been unexpected delays on a couple of fronts and at this point, we want to be able to get at least some of it started for you, as we know that you are all anxious to get up and moving!
To that end, Jeannette’s Chair Yoga class will resume beginning March 7th. Dana Haggith will be starting both her Fit class and her Chair Fit classes next week. It has been a while since we have held these classes, so I have included a description, along with the days, times, and locations of the classes below.
Additionally, after hearing feedback from our participants, the WAAC is dropping fees down to $3 per class. You still need to pre-register and pre-pay for the entire session, but if you are not able to attend a class, your fee for that class will be credited to future activities.
Chair Yoga
Description: Chair yoga offers all of the wonderful health benefits of yoga, without needing to get down on the floor. The chair replaces the yoga mat and becomes an extension of your body, allowing you to take full advantage of yoga’s amazing fitness and health potential.
Day/Time: Mondays in March (7, 14, 21, 28) from 1:00-2:00pm
Location: WAAC Upstairs
Cost: $12 for the session (4 classes @ $3/class)
Fit
Description: Dana will determine the capabilities of participants and what they wish to focus on throughout the session. Usually this class will incorporate some weights, cardio, etc. and will always end with stretching. This
class will be a great way to get back into the exercise habit while having a great time!
Day/Time: Tuesdays in March (March 1, 8, 15, 22, 29) from 10:00-11:00am
Location: WAAC Upstairs
Cost: $15 for the session (5 classes @ $3/class)
Chair Fit
Description: Join Dana for this great seated exercise class. This class incorporates light weights, weighted and non-weighted balls, body weight, and the occasional tension band, ending with a period of stretching. Exercises are mostly done seated or with the assistance of a chair.
Day/Time: Tuesdays in March (1, 8, 15, 22, 29) from 3:00-4:00pm
Location: WAAC Downstairs
Cost: $15 for the session (5 classes @ $3/class)
Due to the short notice for this session, there will not be a required minimum number of participants to run the classes. We will accept registrations up until the start of class on March 1 (Dana’s classes) or March 7 (Jeannette’s class).
Please call or email Victoria to reserve your spot. If you call and get the answering machine, please be sure to leave your name, phone number, and which class you are signing up for. There have been a couple of members who requested to be penciled in over the last week or two. If you are one of these members, please confirm that you are still interested in taking the class.
Updates on other classes:
VON SMART class with Mikki
Mikki’s class is provided through the VON and as such, we are required to follow the guidelines that VON has in place for their exercise programs. Current VON guidelines require masking at all times during exercise classes. Due to the level of exertion required in the class, Mikki is not comfortable holding her classes until masks are not required over concerns about participant safety. As soon as VON lifts the restriction, we will resume VON SMART classes.
