LET’S GET SOCIAL

Fitness Fridays are hopping with F4TC’s classes taking place up and down the 101 Corrider.

Through our alliance with Valley Presbyterian Hospital, we’ve added a new class at Bernardi Senior Center

The class includes yoga but these seniors wanted their Salsa too!

So proud of our friends from LIGHT of HOPE Community Integration Program!

Light of Hope's creative and performing arts program has released their first single "I Like the Sun," that is now available for purchase on iTunes, Amazon, Spotify and all of the streaming platforms. ...Some of the Light of Hope participants helped to write and are singing background vocals on this recording. This song also features guest artist Larry Antonino on bass, background vocals from the pop group Pablo Cruise.

Your purchase will help support this magnificent community who is a part of FIT’s family.

🎾🎾OPEN PLAY🎾🎾

Knowing that our Dink 4 The Cause Pickleball Tournament supports our Group X class provision, our seniors participated in open play. (With pickleballs).

In neuroscience, open play means it’s difficult to anticipate the target 🎯 since it comes at you... from different directions.

This stimulates more neuron growth than closed play, like circuit machines with predictable movement.
(Which is still good for you). 🏋️‍♀️🏋🏽🏋🏻‍♂️
