Pilates!!!

You may have heard the rumors- and this time they are true. Pilates is coming back into the mix of GRMC class offerings! 

Come check it out:  We are hosting a sample class during instructor's choice on Friday the 22nd at 8:15.
Regular class will meet Tuesdays and Thursdays from 12-12:45 starting February 26th.  Class will meet downstairs in the activity room. 

What is Pilates?  Out of the mouth of Desiree, our new instructor, "Pilates was developed in the late 1800s and has been used by countless individuals starting from the medically infirm to dancers and eventually to the general public as a means to improve strength, flexibility and endurance, without risking injury or building bulk.

Pilates is for everyone...any age or fitness level. It is fun and challenging... You will feel the effects of the exercises immediately and will continue to build on your strength, endurance, and overall proficiency of executing the exercises over time."

We are very excited to add Desiree to our team of instructors.  Allow her to introduce herself:

 "I moved to Grinnell last July with my family. I am a former collegiate softball and volleyball player and lifelong fitness enthusiast. Started training in Pilates about four years ago (after having three babies in three years) and became a firm believer in the Pilates methods based on the quick and dramatic strength improvements I received over a short period of time. (Not to mention the visible changes in my waistline!) I fell in love with this exercise system that appealed to everyone. I took classes with men and women of varying ages and fitness levels and everyone benefited from the classes."

Please let us know if you have any further questions
