Students can select from a variety of classes whether they want to focus on strength and endurance, improving flexibility, ramping up cardio training, managing stress, or\u00a0increasing focus with options such as: weight training, yoga, dance, tai chi, and more.<\/p>\n
Students benefit from hands-on training with renowned\u00a0instructors, including former Olympians.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur instructors offer a level of experience that people don\u2019t get from working out in a regular gym or on their own,\u201d says Jamee Stewart, chair of the ACC Health and Kinesiology Department. \u201cSometimes when you walk into a gym it seems like everyone knows exactly what they\u2019re supposed to do. We start at the basic level and move on. When people finish their classes they can go out on their own and feel confident that they know exactly how to perform their exercises no matter what activity they\u2019re doing.\u201d<\/p>\n
