Fitness Class
Fitness Classes
Thursdays at Noon! For those of you who are interested, our fitness class is held at City Hall AND we have a remote option! You can join us from wherever you are located and for as long as you are able (class is roughly 1hour, but when you have to hop off/out I understand!).
We focus on mostly body weight exercises like squats, lunges, push-ups, etc., and we do incorporate a little weight and/or resistance bands (though not necessary to participate). On-site class will be moving back to City Hall Apr 2 in the workout room (located Ground Floor, just past Parking Services).
