We Provide - You Decide:
Under the umbrella of the new expanded programming at the Bernikow JCC, the
Fitness Center is showcasing two new classes - Tai Chi and SharQui.
Participants will be asked to evaluate their experiences. If they are a hit
. . .they will have a permanent place in our roster of fun classes.
Tai Chi
Tai Chi is a Chinese Martial Arts exercise that is primarily practiced for
its health benefits, including a means for dealing with tension and stress.
The slow, graceful movements of Tai Chi increase strength and flexibility
and improve balance and circulation for individuals of all ages and health
conditions. Tai Chi has been known to be an effective therapy for a wide
range of health problems, including poor circulation, headaches, high blood
pressure, arthritis, back pain, breathing difficulties, digestive and
nervous disorders, to name a few.
SharQui™
This class
will get your heart pumping as you improve balance, form and core strength
while performing these exotic moves. Come join us for this soul-stimulating
workshop that will let you express yourself as you get into great shape!
Pilates Reformer
Spring is the time for change and new beginnings. Getting back to the gym
after a long, cold winter could be the first thing on your "to do" list this
season. If not, it should be because the new Joan and Alan Bernikow JCC has
an exciting program starting up in Spring '07. The Pilates Reformer is
finally here! Pilates, considered one of the fastest growing forms of
exercise in the world is breaking ground at the new JCC Fitness Center. The
philosophy is to train and condition the body from the inside out.
Participants will find improvement in their posture, spinal alignment, and
strength without the bulk! If you're tired of not getting the results you
want, or just looking for a different routine, the Reformer Program is for
you. Take charge of your body, reform
it from the inside out!
Intro to Cycling!
If you have never taken an indoor cycling class and need some personalized
attention learning how to set yourself up on the bike, this is the time and
place for you! This 30 minute session leads right into a 45-minute class
that is appropriate for all levels, as well as being welcoming for
beginners.
