Senior Exercise (50+)
Chair Exercise: This class is a functional aerobic workout that is done using a chair to either sit in or use for balance. Chair exercise is a challenging workout for everyone that will increase your heart rate, burn calories, and build strength. If you have arthritis or just need to start a regular exercise routine, this class is for you.
Chair Volleyball: Please join us in the Basketball Gym at The Rec at The LakefrontTM. More fun than you can possibly stand – while seated! Come enjoy this fun-filled game played with a beach ball. Chair Volleyball is great for upper body mobility and joint flexibility. It enhances muscle tone, reflexes, hand-to- eye coordination, and endurance. Rules are similar to regular volleyball, except we keep “cheeks on the chair!”
