Strength and Balance

Come February, the fitness team will divide Strength & Balance into two groups, “Sit to stand” and “Assisted”.

The goal is to find the best fitness level for each participant, diminish the “waiting list”, and hone in on the goals and progressions for all members.

The days and times will change in the coming months as we will add more Level 1 classes Monday – Friday.

“Sit to Stand” Strength & Balance: 11 a.m. T/TH

The format will be focusing on those who require more sitting as they work on muscle strength and only stand to work on balance with a chair, for assistance.

“Assisted” Strength & Balance: 11:45 a.m. T/TH

The format will be focusing on those who can stand during the strength portion of the class but require a chair for assistance during the balance portion.
