Have you heard that LA Fitness has purchased most of the Bally Total Fitness Centers? Yes, the one right here in Coral Springs was part of the sale. Hoping to see some of my old SilverSneakers students come join us in Tamarac at Tamarac Fitness Center. There are 8 classes a week specifically for YOU and I am teaching them with my friend Ellen, who I started teaching SilverSneakers with way back in the 90s at the Quadrangle. With the added classes we have plenty of room for more….and if the classes get too full, we will add more classes so it’s all good. Come check us out at 7935 West McNab Road, or call Ron or Wendie at 954 726 1070.

Water Aerobics is 720 calories ???? Wow – I need to give that a try.
