Zumba is a fun, Latin-based dance class. There
is so much excitement and great music, it is hard
to believe it is a workout. Beginners welcome
and you don’t have to be a good dancer to
love this class. Give it a whirl at Texas Drive on
Tuesdays and Thursdays at 2 p.m.
There are great benefits of biking and
awesome opportunities to learn to ride
or perfect your biking skills in our Group
Fitness Indoor Cycling classes. Since
daily aerobic exercise is important for
heart health and weight control, it is in-
valuable to find great classes like indoor
cycling to get you motivated and moving
to keep your body healthy and strong!
While cycling in an indoor cycling class,
members receive the instruction needed
to ensure good form and safety. Group
cycling also provides great music and a
workout plan that is more fun and more
effective than if you were doing it alone.
We offer the following cycling classes, so
you can pick the length of your class and
if you want some strength training too!
Join us this week at the Cowan Creek
Fitness Center. All levels welcome!
