Town Councilman Chris J. Coschignano announced that the town’s popular fall fitness programs are returning this October for residents seeking to maintain or improve their levels of fitness heading into the cooler months.
“These fitness programs are for individuals 18 years of age or older who want to increase flexibility, tone muscles and build strength,” said Coschignano. “Participants have the opportunity to register for courses such as Zumba, yoga, and cardio kickboxing. Each session is tailored to the physical condition of the individual and designed to gain the best results.”
Registration for the fall fitness programs will take place at the Town of Oyster Bay Hicksville Athletic Center, located at 167 Broadway, in Hicksville from 7 to 9 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 24, and from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 26. Following these dates, registration will continue at the Hicksville Athletic Center, based on availability. Each 10 to 12 week program is $60 for residents and $70 for non-residents.
Zumba classes will be held from 7 to 8 p.m. on Mondays (starting Oct. 5), and 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. on Wednesdays (starting Oct. 7). The yoga classes will be held on Mondays from 10 to 11 a.m. (starting Oct. 5), Tuesdays from 8 to 9 p.m. (starting Oct. 6) and Saturdays from 9 to 10 a.m. (starting Oct. 10). The cardio kickboxing classes will be held on Mondays from 8 to 9 p.m. beginning on Oct. 5.
“These fitness programs are very popular because they are both healthy and enjoyable,” said Coschignano. “It is always recommended that participants check with a physician before participating in any physical fitness program.”
