A Smarter Workout
Tuesdays and Fridays, 9:30am | YAAB Gym
Meet with a community of mostly women 50 and over who enjoy conversation, camaraderie and laughter, oh, and exercise! The class is led by Susan Lee, group fitness instructor and personal trainer. We rotate different types of exercise for a functional, healthy, strong body – and have lots of fun doing it! Modifications are encouraged and we never push each other to perform. Judgment is forbidden, especially from yourself. It will never be completely easy, but it will only be hard if you want to challenge yourself! All are welcome! For more info, contact Susan Lee (brentandsusanlee@gmail.com) or text Susan at 404/408-3202.
