Balance Class, 8 wks, Thursday, Feb 5!
The class begins Thursday, February 5th, from 1030 to 1130 am, and runs for 8 weeks.
As we get older, we start to have issues with with our bodies and usually with our balance. To provide some help with that issue, Friendship Park Community Center will be hosting a free class called A Matter of Balance, to address how to improve ourselves physically.
PLEASE NOTE: This class is FREE and open to the entire community.
For the first half of the class, participants will be seated for instruction from the presenter, Corey Anderson from University of Toledo Medical Center (UTMC). The second half hour will be gentle exercise to demonstrate things you can do to improve or restore your balance.
There will be a sign up sheet at the Center, to get a count on how many participants we will have, in order to provide enough materials for all attendees. You may still attend if you can’t make it over to sign up. Call the center to ask to have your name added to the list.
PLEASE NOTE: Thursday, February 5th, the start of the classes, is also the date of our monthly potluck, which begins at noon. If you want to attend the potluck, please bring a dish to share. Corey, the UTMC class instructor, will also be attending the potluck in case you have any questions or comments you would like to share. NOTE: there will not be a potluck every week, just the first Thursday of class.
I hope you will come and join us as we work together to improve and maintain our health!!!
