Fitness and Leisure Education Programs

The following are non-credit courses developed for the specific purpose of improving and maintaining the physical fitness of our students, faculty/staff and their spouses.  Sessions generally last anywhere from six to ten weeks and are instructed by highly qualified persons in each activity.  Information on these programs will be mailed on campus and posted in the recreation center display case.

Aerobic Classes
These sessions combine the health benefits of aerobics, the toning benefits of exercise, the exhiliration of moving rhythmically to music as a bonus, and the fun of exercising with friends.
Call (440) 826-2285 for days and times.


Water Aerobics
Aerobic exercises are practiced in waist or chest deep water.  It is not necessary to be a swimmer to participate.  Water Aerobics involves the same benefits as regular aerobic exercise and is much easier on the joints.
