Low Impact Aerobics
9:30am - 10:45am
Led by Jeanette
After a good warm-up, we do low impact aerobics for approx 30 minutes. Fitness levels 1, 2 and 3 are demonstrated so you can choose which one is right for you. The 2nd part of class is devoted to strength training (using hand weights and elastic bands) and stretching. From 10:45am-11: 00am, we focus on various stress release practices such as meditation, qi-gong, breathing, stretching, and energy therapies. There is no mat work in this class. All of the exercises are done standing or sitting in a chair. (On the first Friday and third Monday of each month, from 10:40-11am, we do fun beginner line dances for those class members who want to join us.)

Guided Meditation
10:45am - 11:00am
Led by Jeanette
This is the "rest and restore" part of the class. We rotate between meditation, qi-gong, energy therapies and more stretching with deep breathing. Relax your whole body to the sound of peaceful music and Jeanette's soothing voice. You will be guided into feeling good and letting go of stress and tension. Give yourself the gift of your own natural presence and experience joyful gratitude for the many blessings in your life. (On the first Friday and third Monday of each month we do fun, beginner line dances from 10:40am-11am, instead of relaxation practices.)
