Big cheers for Dan Stern, (pictured with Membership Manager Jason Lai), our March Member of the Month!
If you’ve ever walked into the fitness center and seen someone with a spring in his step during sets, that was probably Dan —bringing Zumba spirit to every lift.
He snagged a cool Lauri Ann West Community Center workout towel as his prize.
Thanks for bringing your energy, Dan.
We kicked it old school last week — and it was a total vibe!
Our very first throwback dance‑aerobics class brought 45 enthusiastic participants together for a high‑energy blast from the past. Four powerhouse instructors tag‑teamed to keep the room buzzing with nonstop movement, music, and smiles.
This retro workout isn’t a one‑time thing. Catch our next one on Thursday, April 30 in place of Zumba. Sign-ups will be available on April 28, beginning at 6:00am on the MindBody app.
Lauri Ann West Community Center is partnering with Foxwall EMS for a hands-on Community CPR & First Aid Class designed to give you the skills and confidence to act in an emergency.
Participants will receive expert instruction and guided practice on:
• Performing CPR on adults, children, and infants
• Managing an obstructed airway for all age groups
• Using an AED safely and effectively
Upon completion, you’ll receive certification through the American Heart Association, along with a CPR card valid for two years.
Whether you`re a parent, caregiver, healthcare provider or community member, this is an invaluable opportunity to learn lifesaving skills in a supportive environment.
We have new belts!
