As summer approaches, it's the perfect time to prioritize family wellness and make the most of the season's abundant opportunities for fun and fitness. From staying active to nourishing your bodies and minds, there are countless ways to promote well-being as a family during these warmer months! 

 

Family Fitness  

Spice up your fitness routine by trying our Family Fitness classes once a month. From high-energy Zumba sessions to fun games and relays there's something for everyone to enjoy. Plus, children aged 12 and up can join you on the workout floor and turn exercise into a bonding experience for the whole family. 

 

Kid Zone 

While you focus on your workout, keep your littles engaged and active in Kid Zone. Designed to provide a safe and fun environment for kids, Kid Zone offers interactive play areas and supervised activities that encourage movement and creativity. After your workout, reunite with your children and share stories of your fitness adventures. Check out our Kid Zone offerings and activities here. 

 

Make a Splash in the Pool 

Dive into summer fun by taking advantage of our outdoor and indoor pools. Whether you prefer swimming laps for a full-body workout or lounging by the poolside with your family, the pool offers a refreshing escape from the summer heat. Encourage your family to join you for a swim or take part in water-based activities like aqua aerobics or water polo. 

 

Pickleball  

Pickleball is a fun and inclusive sport that's perfect for the whole family. At our pickleball courts, you can enjoy friendly matches with your kiddos of all ages! Pickleball is easy to learn and provides a fantastic cardiovascular workout, making it an ideal summer activity for families looking to stay active and connected. 

 

Mindful Movement and Relaxation 

Balance out your family's active pursuits with moments of mindfulness and relaxation. After a day filled with fitness and fun, unwind together with stretches or “quiet time”. Find a space where you can pause, breathe, and savor the present moment as a family, promoting mental and emotional well-being.
