Enhance Fitness

A full hour of fun focused on dynamic cardiovascular exercise, strength training, balance, and flexibility – everything older adults need to maintain health and functions as they age. 

  • Strength Training: train with light weights.
  • Flexibility and Balance: increase your range of movement and help prevent falls. 
  • Aerobic and Cardio: experience improvements in walking and breathing. 

What to Expect

  • Expect a casual atmosphere. This one-hour class is attended by older adults like you – not athletes – interested in improving their life through exercise. 
  • Expect an energetic, certified instructor who leads our series of exercises and provides individual attention. 
  • Classes begin with a warm-up period. At times, you work with light soft-weights (provided). Classes finish with a cool-down session. 

Geri-Fit

Geri-Fit is a 45 minute video-led strength training exercise class for older adults. Most of the body building exercises are performed seated in chairs with a set of light dumbbell weights. As you become stronger, you can advance to heavier dumbbells in order to challenge yourself even more. Enrollment is open to older adults of all ages and fitness levels, simply work out at your own pace!
