Martha and Jeff Gottlieb, owners of Expressions of Health, are introducing a new Faith Fitness class that is available to the entire community. Faith Fitness is a fun exercise class inspired by, and set to, contemporary Christian music. The class includes simple moves to elevate heart rates, strengthen and tone muscles, and enhance balance and flexibility. The length of the class is about 60 minutes and is appropriate for all ages, from first-timers to seasoned exercisers.
Classes will be held on Wednesday, June 15 and Wednesday, June 29 at 6:00 p.m. at the United Methodist Church Fellowship Hall in Oscoda. Faith Fitness classes are strictly non-profit and donation-based, with all donations going toward the “Oscoda Schools Backpack” food assistance program and the “Loaves and Fishes” community lunch program.
Class participants are asked to wear comfortable clothes and tennis shoes, and bring a towel or mat for floor exercises as well as two canned goods to use in the strength portion of the program. The canned goods can be donated to a local charity at the end of the class.
“We are thrilled to bring Faith Fitness to the local community,” offered Martha. “Just clapping your hands, breathing and/or singing is exercise. Since Faith Fitness is accessible to all levels of fitness, we look forward to seeing the entire community and having some fun!”
Great idea! You get exercise plus help the less fortunate!
