YOGA
Yoga is the science and art of living that deals with the whole person. It is calming the mind; expanding awareness of the body through exercise, conscious breathing, and deep relaxation. Yoga creates an atmosphere of internal peace and harmony, helping with the management of stress. Yoga is free with your membership at the Aquatic and Fitness Center.

PILATES
Pilates is an 80 year old physical conditioning method based on core stability and strength. Combining aspects of Eastern philosophy and Western calisthenics, Pilates is about ease of movement and mental concentration. It is not about how much weight you can lift, or working your muscles to fatigue. Pilates required intense focus and detailed attention to form. Working from the inside out, deep abdominals engage, the legs and arms reach. Because Pilates activates deeper muscles than traditional strength training, you will feel the changes in your body, as well as see positive results. Pilates promises that you'll feel better in 10 sessions, look better in 20, and have a new body in 30!

TAI CHI
Created over 1,000 years ago, Tai Chi is still known today for its health benefits. Through the slow movement of Tai Chi, one will achieve balance, rhythm, coordination, and relaxation. Because Tai Chi demands concentration, the student learns to focus his/her mind, enabling the body to experience harmony through the movements. Health, mental awareness, focus, discipline, and self-defense: those are the key ingredients to Tai Chi. Feel the force, don't force the feel.
TAE KWON DO
A terrific way to improve cardiovascular conditioning, muscle tone and gain self confidence. This ancient Korean form of martial arts, incorporates physical and mental discipline. Tae Kwon Do strives to develop the positive aspects of an individual's personality: Respect, Courtesy, Goodness, Trustworthiness, Loyalty, Humility, Courage, Patience, Integrity, Perseverance, Self-control, an Indomitable Spirit and a sense of responsibility to help and respect all forms of life. This takes a great deal of hard training and many do not reach far enough to achieve perfection in all of these aspects. However, it is the physical, mental, and spiritual effort which the individual puts forth that develops the positive attributes and image of both the individual and how he or she perceives others No experience is necessary and members of all ages are encouraged to attend. |
