Tonetics

Want to get in shape without all the running, jumping and bouncing? Try Tonetics -- a deep-muscle exercise class involving walking, stretching, bar usage and more.

The purpose is to tone and lose inches, while working all major muscle groups to achieve an all-over muscle fitness. Classes are $20 per person and meet Tuesday and Thursday for five weeks from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. at the recreation department.

Line dance classes

The chance to learn the Electric Slide and other popular steps is here.

Line dance is a great stress reducer and emotional release as well as good exercise, providing much the same benefits as low-impact aerobics.

Increase energy, improve strength and muscle tone. Age is no factor and you can build your stamina while having fun. Come with a friend or spouse or come alone; you don’t need a partner for line dance.

Beginner classes are on Mondays, 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. and 6 to 7 p.m. Beginner intermediate classes are on Mondays from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. All classes are held in the big room at the recreation department building. Cost is $4 per person per class.

Senior fitness class

A group exercise class for ages 55 and older provides a fun variety of exercises to improve strength, flexibility, posture and balance, using a chair and a floor mat (optional).

All participants must be ambulatory and able to follow verbal cues in order to safely and effectively perform the exercises. Instructor is Melia Campolong.

The class meets from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. Monday, Tuesday and Thursday at the recreation department building.

The cost is $20 per month, and pre-registration is required.
