Apparatus/Fun and Games Fitness Class
Pamela Pankratz
Does the idea of hitting the treadmill make your brain go numb and your body flinch? Do traditional exercise classes produce feelings of fear and dread? Does the notion of lifting weights with the muscle boys make you scoff and say, “yeah, right…”?
Who says exercise has to be traditional, boring or intimidating? Why can’t exercise just be fun?
In Apparatus/Fun and Games Fitness we will explore the idea of play – hopscotch, four-square, hula hoops, and dancing. We use everyday items such as broom handles, balls, and scarves to make getting and staying in shape feel fun and new! We also rediscover some of the old stand bys like medicine balls, hand weights, and exercise balls to reshape our bodies and our notions of what it means to “exercise”. The program is designed to work all muscle groups from legs, bottoms, abs, chest, arms – as well as your brain and your spirit!
Come play with us and rediscover the joy of movement and keep those New Years resolutions for a healthier and happier 2010!
Classes are taught by Pamela Pankratz and will be held Wednesdays and Fridays from 9 AM until 10 PM at the new Haven Spa in Bajo Boquete. The first day of play is January 13. Classes are open to members and non-members of Haven Spa. For information regarding class packages contact the Haven Spa at: 720-1943 or 720-1324.
