Tabata strength Training (tuesday & Thursday, 5:00 TO 5:40 P.M.) AEROBICS ROOM

Joy Harlos— Tabata is an interval workout that is designed around performing various exercises at maximum effort for 20 seconds followed by a 10 second rest.  A person can do anything for 20 seconds, right?  The movements can be cardio or strength based and are  typically very basic, including things like squats, lunges, arm work with dumbbells, etc.  It is great for any fitness level, although those who are just getting started will want to take it easy and work into full intensity over time.  The biggest perk is that it delivers great benefits in a short period of time.  Each class is only 30 minutes and attending regularly twice a week DOES produce results.

Yoga (Monday & Wednesday, 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.) Aerobics Room

Laura Connors — (Hatha Yoga) End your work day with a gentle, yet invigorating yoga practice integrating a combination of standing, seated, supine, twisting, balancing and supported inversion postures. Suitable for beginners and experienced yoga students, these classes emphasize the fundamentals of Hatha yoga.

Zumba (Tuesday & Thursday, 5:45 to 6:45 p.m.) Aerobics room

Joy Harlos — Zumba is the only Latin-inspired dance-fitness program that blends red-hot international music and contagious steps to form a “fitness-party” that is downright addictive. It’s easy to do, effective and totally exhilarating, often building a deep-rooted community among returning students. Expect no hand weights or floor mats, just lots of great music and movement at your own pace. Many people have stated that Zumba got them off the couch and kept them off simply because it is so much fun that you want to go back for more. Before you know it, you’re getting fit and your energy levels are soaring!
