What are classes like?
Many classes are held in the weight room at facilities with accessible equipment. Each individual uses the ninety (90) minute class time to follow their own personalized workout in the company of other class participants. Instructors are present to help with modifications and progressions. Aides are welcome to assist where needed.
Come prepared
A completed ParMedX or ParQ+ form must be summitted once per year. New participants must undergo a prescreening after which an appropriate program is created based on their unique fitness needs.
