Summertime Means Wellness & Fun at the J!

Summertime Means Wellness & Fun at the J!

Elsie Bennett | Director of Fitness, Wellness & Aquatics

The AJCC was just named one of the Top 5 Gyms in Long Beach by the Long Beach Post! Come check it out and say hi to our amazing team!

Summer is here, and now is a great time to add some health and wellness activity into your schedule. “Your Center for Life” promises a season full of fun, restorative, high-quality programs.

The J is where enjoyment meets dedication and community. Our wellness programs suit any level of fitness, and we have outstanding trainers and instructors, including a few new folks who would love to meet you! Drop by for a workout in the Alban Fitness Center, open 7 days per week. For our fitness fans and weekday warriors, I recommend taking our specialty Power Yoga, Spin, and Tae Bo® Fitness classes. Looking for a more recreational vibe and carefree pace? Try our Step-and-Balance, Low-n-Sculpt Aerobics, or Functional Training classes built to give you a respite from the hustle and bustle of the daily grind. Join our group fitness classes and move to everything from Bruce Springsteen to Bad Bunny. Each class offers a social experience, which brings an energy unlike any other. You are also invited to check out our pickleball and basketball courts located in the Feldman Family Gymnasium.

With restoration being another core theme of our wellness programs, this season be sure to step into the Feiwell Dance and Aerobics Studio and spend some time on the mat with any of our amazing yoga instructors, whose calm and soothing energy will leave you feeling reinvigorated. If mindfulness and lounging are your goals, then make the Alpert JCC your destination for a picture-perfect SoCal summer in our beautiful outdoor spaces. The Mary Alpert Pool is the perfect community gathering spot for every generation. From the pool deck you can witness the wonder of little ones entering the water for the first time, see the pride and teamwork of our Bluefin Swim Team, observe the exhilaration of established swimmers owning their lanes, or join in an aqua aerobics class. Whether you’re participating or spectating, our aquatics programs are a beautiful reminder of our flourishing community.

Join us! Jump into summer at the Alpert JCC and reconnect with the wellness of your body, soul, and spirit. Our Center is excited and proud to provide a place of fun and rejuvenation for the entire family this season. Our new classes and programs have something for EVERYONE!
