Aerobics & Yoga Class Descriptions
Yoga, Tai Chi, and Balance classes are located in Windber Place on the 5th floor, next to Windber Hospice.
Progression and Power and Renegade Rowing classes are located in HealthStyles Gym.
- Balance Basics – This class will teach strengthening and balance exercises utilizing proper progression and sequencing. The goal is to improve balance and stability, and prevent falls. Participants will also learn about all sensory systems essential for balance. Basic agility skills will also be incorporated.
- Progression and Power – This is a strength training class that will help you see the benefits of lifting weights. Each class will be different enough to keep you engaged, but will have enough of the same exercises to be able to track your progression. Don’t want to get big bulky muscles? Don’t worry – try the class!
- Renegade Rowing – Rower ergometers depend on the user to give more effort to achieve a lower level. Renegade Rowing utilizes the rower and various other exercise techniques to challenge members at any fitness level.
- Tai Chi – Improve balance, build muscle strength, accelerate healing, and reduce the negative effects of chronic pain and stress through the gentle movements of tai chi and qigong. Classes include gentle movement, breathing practices to build lung health, self-applied massage to increase energy, self-applied massage techniques, and deep relaxation.
- Restorative Yoga – This is an active, low impact class, putting your joints through a full range of motion to improve flexibility.
- Yoga – This is a moderately active, low impact class, putting your joints through a full range of motion to improve flexibility as well as strength and stamina. Must be able to get up and down on the floor.
