We at the Scott County Family Y know that some of our older members have fitness needs and goals that require a special touch. We have designed several programs just for our senior members who are ready to start or continue the process of building a healthy body, mind and spirit. Almost all of our group fitness classes are designed for all levels of participation. We want as many of our members to be involved, because after all, the more the merrier! But we also have programs that are created just for our seniors specifically. In addition to the land-based classes listed below, we have senior aquatics classes in many of our pools that can make a perfect complement to, or a complete, fitness regimen. Fit For Life – This class is designed for the active older adult and individuals beginning to exercise. Participants and instructors are always willing to make everyone comfortable. Fit For Life is one of our longest-running and popular classes of all time. Drop in and give it a shot. Silver Sneakers® – This class is designed to have fun and to move to the music through a variety of exercises that increase muscular strength, range of movement and activity for daily living skills. Hand-held weights, elastic tubing with handles and a ball are offered for resistance; and a chair is used for seated and/or standing support. Silver SneakersÒ even works with several health care providers for an even greater benefit. |
