Can we please get jump ropes in the wellness center?

Our Response:
w
Jump ropes are located in the Wellness Center office. Ask one of the "Fitness Coaches" to borrow one.

w Please use the jump rope in the gym because of the limited space and number of people in the Wellness Center.

w Sorry that you had to ask. It's one of the things the staff knows and we assume so does everyone else.

Tina Horve - did a great job in spinning. She plays great music and makes her workout flow and keeps the students motivated - she rocks!

Our Response:
w Thanks for taking the time to let us know about your spin experience with Tina Horve!

w We think Tina rocks too! (as do our other instructors & coaches.)

Several of us who were in Frankie's kickbox class want kickboxing back! There is no kickboxing class after 5:00 PM.

I went to step on Monday & as a beginner it was very over whelming & I'm athletic.

The schedule said Step but it was more like Step Plus. Shouldn't the first class of a new session have some beginner stuff or explain the moves better?? The class was a great workout but half the time I had no idea what I was doing. Please bring back kickboxing.

Our Response:
w Thanx for your thoughts.

w Our experience is, that during the warm weather, class attendance drops; in order to provide the most benefit to the most members AND be good stewards of your membership dollars, we adjust the schedule to reflect the participation.

w We continually evaluate our schedules to insure they suit the needs of most of our Members and, at the same time, maximize health and fitness benefits.

Emily C. and...
Aerobics new schedule: I like classes that start between 4;30 and 5:00 (PM) and involve aerobic exercise for 45 (or 60 would be great) minutes - either kick boxing, step, dance, whatever. I can come right after work and be home by 5:30! Strength training :(- I can do this in the fitness center.
P. S. All the aerobics teachers are great - Gail, Cathy, Shelley & Susie! Thanks!

For summer I do not want 2 strength training on Mon. & Wed. at 4:30. Mix it up with step & weights.

The Dance class on Thurs. at 5:45 is a bad time - could it be at 4:30 or 5:00?

Our Response:
w During the summer, attendance does not warrant two cardio classes each night. In order to ensure that we give the members all the exercise disciplines they need, and make sure that we are using our rooms to capacity, we restructure the schedule for summer.

w There are still cardio classes that begin at 4:30 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Tuesdays will be TurboKick, Thursdays will be a rotating class. Each month there will be a different style of class offered that is new and unique.

w If you want a cardio Class that begins close to 4:30PM, you can take Spin. This class begins at 5:00PM on Mondays and at 4:30PM on Wednesdays.
