Description: Your brain may not be a muscle but you need to keep it active to keep it healthy. Some of our members take advantage of our university classes, but learning is only a part of exercising your brain. To help you out we offer this Brain Fitness class. The class promotes brain health through fitness, nutrition, cognitive exercises and activities to boost memory skills and stimulate the brain. Adults are living longer and longer, and we need to promote mental as well as physical health. The group does crosswords, puzzles, trivia, and encourages active discussion. Everything is designed to get those synapses firing. If you want to sharpen your skills and learn new things this group is for you. So make a mental note to show up at registration to ensure your spot. If you forget to register, you REALLY need to get fit!

Description: Does your favorite Christmas song include the line “Pa rum pum pum pum”? Do you just “want to bang on the drum all day”? Or do you just like to drum your fingers on the table? If so we might just have the perfect exercise class for you. Starting on March 3rd, we will be hosting Cardio Drumming, also known as Drums Alive, Exercise Drumming, DrumFit, Pound, and Fit Ball. Cardio Drumming is a type of workout that mixes a variety of standard cardio exercises with a fun and exciting drumming routine. It gets your body pumping out blood to your muscles and increases oxygen retention in your cardiovascular system which results in better overall health, can stave off depression and even has been shown to help clear your body of carbon dioxide and various other waste. Most importantly, cardio drumming is good for your heart and lungs. The instructor will be Julia Ragan We will provide the ball holder and drum sticks, you provide the ball and the energy to march to the beat of your own drum. Well sit actually. We will have some balls on hand but those are limited. The class is free, but donations for Julia are gladly accepted, and takes place on Wednesdays from 8:15 – 9:00 am, and starts with some stretching. After that it’s Buddy Rich time! Or for you younger folk, Ringo Starr.
