Strength Training, an Introduction
Many people shy away from strength training because they believe it takes a lot of effort. If your doctor has been recommending it, here is your chance to be a good patient. Bring a mat, a pair of three- or five-pound weights, or even two cans of soup to join this intro class. We will put on some music for 20-30 minutes and discover a weight training routine to build muscle and bone strength. You can pick the amount of effort you are willing to put into your exercise. Come join us and have some fun! Class Limit: 25

Bring water if desired. Class Limit: 50
Line Dancing: Beginning 1
The Beginner 1 class is for those who have completed the Starter class or for those who are familiar with line dancing.
