YOGA

Yoga is a wonderful way to stay limber and get more energy! It can help boost your circulation, stretch and strengthen all your muscles, help you get a good night’s sleep, and relax and de-stress you! Roberta Weiner, a Certified Kripalu and Hatha Yoga teacher who runs the Prana Center in Holliston, will be running two different Yoga classes.

Chair Yoga—FREE via HCAT (Comcast Ch. 11, Verizon Ch. 34). This program is geared toward those who would like to either try Yoga or for those who aren’t interested in the full Yoga class on the floor mats. Roberta will be recording this class each month on Holliston’s Cable channel. HCAT will publish the schedule each month and you will be able to join in whenever you want. There is no donation requested for this class.
 Yoga—Monday & Wednesdays via Zoom, $4.00 donation per class requested. This is the usual Yoga class that is normally held at the Senior Center. Roberta will be holding her class every Monday and Wednesday morning from 11:00am—Noon via Zoom.

PILATES

Pilates will also be held in two different formats.

Thursdays from 9:00 am—10:00 am via Zoom, $4.00 donation per class requested. Please join Sharon Broadley-Martin as she leads the class to help improve your strength, balance and circulation through a whole-body workout.
Free Pilates on HCAT. This program is a pre-taped program with Instructor Allie Barrett. Allie was an instructor at the Senior Center prior to her relocation. HCAT will publish the schedule each month and you will be able to join in whenever you want. There is no donation requested for this class.

WALKING FITNESS

This is a free, video-led, in-place walking program that will be run on Holliston’s Cable channel. These videos have been used at the Center for the past year and have been very successful. Be prepared to work up a sweat while walking in place with different levels of walking. This program provides a great cardio workout, brain power, waistline trimming, and overall fitness. HCAT will publish the schedule each month and you will be able to join in whenever you want. There is no donation requested for this class.
