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.
Karaoke Party
By: Mike Sylva
If you used to Sing Along with Mitch then you did karaoke, before karaoke was cool! Well since we at the Highland Senior Center are always cool, we decided to host a Karaoke Party. It is basically a singing to the music of your favorite songs. If you dont know the words, no worries. There is a screen, where the words appear, and are highlighted as they are to be sung.

We tried it out last month with a few brave souls. Our very own Penny, Martha, and Timi sang out loud, to which others decided if they can do it, so can I, and belted out tunes of their own. Light refreshments were served and were paid back in lots of laughs and good times.

Thanks to Skip for running the event, and to Anthem Blue Cross for sponsoring the fun.

The next Karaoke Party will take place on Tuesday, March 15, and the 3rd Tuesday of every month thereafter. We look forward to having you join us.
