Hi BORP Fitness Fans,
I hope this update finds you all well and ready to welcome Spring. Of course as I write this the forecast is calling for cooler temps and rain. Wishful Spring thinking on my part.
Here is the latest news on the BORP fitness front. We have added another new Zumba class. This one is Zumba Gold and it is specially designed for seniors and anyone looking for a low impact, fun, latin style, workout/dance class. Yes it’s all of those wrapped into one. Thalia Tooke is our Instructor for this class and she is full of great energy so consider joining her on Mondays from 12:30-1:30pm for Zumba Gold.
Another new addition to our lineup is the Chakra Yoga Class. One of our fabulous and long time instructors Pnina Shamsi is offering this class. This yoga class focuses on deeply stretching and strengthening the body, while incorporating and exploring many energetic balancing techniques. This class is moderate to vigorous in intensity, and some yoga experience is suggested. This class is offered on Mondays from 5:15-6:15pm.
Nancy Yates has started a new class titled Stretch, Release, and Feel Better. This class Combines light to moderate stretching with a focus on releasing tension, mental and physical fatigue and letting-go of stress as a basis for healing and feeling better. This class is offered on Thursdays from 12:15-1:15pm.
And lastly, we are now open on Saturdays with a Gentle Yoga Class taught by Stacey Singleton. Stacey is a long time Bay Area Yoga Instructor and is an excellent addition to our Instructor roster. Her class on Saturdays is from 8:30-9:45am.
