Y to celebrate Active Aging Week with free programs
"The Y is committed to providing programs and classes that have the active senior in mind," active older adult coordinator Marilyn Duschl said in a press release. "We have over 600 senior members who participate in group exercise classes, wellness center workouts, aquatic classes and educational and social events."
The Y is extending an invitation to other seniors in the community to receive a free week guest pass at the Y. The guest pass will give anyone 55+ years old the opportunity to work out at the Y, swim and participate in senior exercise classes and programs. Classes include the SilverSneakers Classic, SilverSneakers Cardio, Keep Your Motor Running, Men's Stretching and a special demonstration class for Moving for Better Balance through Tai Chi and Gentle Water Exercise.
The Y is a recognized Healthways SilverSneakers® Fitness Program location. Healthways offers a number of older-adult programs and classes. SilverSneakers is the nation's leading exercise program designed exclusively for Medicare-eligible adults and for Group Retirees. If you are eligible for the SilverSneaker program through your health insurance, now is the time to get enrolled at the YMCA, the release states.
To participate at the Y during Active Aging Week in the group land and water exercise classes, special programs and Wellness Center workouts, pick up a free guest pass at the YMCA located at 2203 East Winnebago Street, Rhinelander. For more information, call (715) 362-9622.
