Shuffleboard Bocce Exercise Classes: Now Accepting Silver Sneakers & Silver & Fit The updated exercise schedule includes all the classes that were available to us before, with the option of your health care plan paying for your attendance. If you are not yet (age) eligible for Silver Sneakers, or it is not a benefit of your health insurance plan, purchase of a punch card, 10 classes for $35, is still an available option to cover the cost of classes with our certified instructor. The Fitness Schedule with Silver Sneakers and Silver & Fit classes includes: Aqua Fitness, on Monday and Wednesday at 8 and 9 am; Cardio and Strength Level 1 (which is the entry level class for beginning exercisers and those with physical challenges, on Tues./Thurs. at 9:15 am). Yoga Flow begins at 10:30 am on Tuesday and Thursday and is great for stretching out those muscle kinks and arthritis twinges. All the classes are conducted seated or standing, so you can move through the exercises at your own comfort level. After the second Aqua Fitness Class on Mondays and Wednesdays we have the more advanced Circuit Challenge, which is Level 2. And again, chairs are available for your comfort and to aid you in the completion of all movements. Therefore, if you are interested in attending both sets of classes, Level 1 and Level 2, you may do so. Pick your most convenient time, come over to the Lodge and give your expanded choices for health and fitness a try.
