Beginner Level
Are you ready to get your heart rate moving and the sweat flowing? Welcome to Fitness & Fun as my students will become as active as possible with some group workouts, cardio, strength training, and competing against other learners in the class. No required experience or knowledge is needed! I will model and demonstrate each activity we will do in class so if you're new to working out then this is the class for you. We will begin with a warmup and some stretching to activate the muscles in order to prevent any potential injuries. Makes sure you have a water bottle, workout clothes and appropriate footwear such as tennis shoes, a small designated space to be active (5 x 5 space should be sufficient) and a desire to get the body moving. The class format will be very identical each week as we will focus on the components of fitness which are: cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength, muscular endurance, and flexibility. The activities may vary but this class doesn't build upon prior weeks so no prior knowledge or experience will be required.
Learning Goals
Students will gain a passion for being physically fit and will learn some new fitness ideas they can use on their own outside of class. I want to equip them with physical fitness components that they will value for the rest of their lives.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
This is a physical fitness which will require students basically moving in a small 5 x 5 space. We will do a dynamic warmup to get the blood flowing and some stretching to prevent any potential injuries. Safety is a priority for me and I design my fitness classes to prevent injuries as much as possible.
