Walking in water, while much easier on your joints, is much more difficult for your muscles. A 160-lb. person will burn 292 calories in a one-hour water aerobics class, compared to the 277 calories burned while walking at a 3.5 mile pace. Find your swimsuit and jump in the pool at Twin Lakes Family Wellness Center Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 8:30-9:30 am Just $3 for non-members per class.

Line Dancing at Wellness Center

Line dancing is offered at the Wellness Center Mondays, 5-6 p.m. and every third Friday, 5:30-7 p.m. Low impact dancing has been proven to ease the obstacles of aging if done weekly. It is the third most popular extra curricular activity in the world for those over the age of 50: 1) Lowers blood pressures and cholesterol levels; 2) Increases mobility without joint damage; 3) Increases balance control and centering; 4) Increases bone mass and muscle; 5) Aids in effort to lose weight; 6) Eases levels of depression; 7) Staves off early signs of Alzheimer’s. We are changing the perception of aging one line dance at a time while adding years to your life and life to your years! All ages accepted!! For more information, call the Wellness Center at 387-9622.
