Activator Poles are exercise tools that allow more muscles to be "activated" during physical activity. You might think of them as walking poles but Kristina will instruct you on how to benefit from the specialty core grip on the Activator poles so that you can burn more calories and build more strength even when you're sitting down. The Power Up class will involve some walking and standing but will mostly be performed in a seated position. Performed to upbeat music, we will get our heart rate up and be breathing a little quicker but will have plenty of breaks. Each class will incorporate a warm up and stretching section. This class is a great place to start if you have never tried Activator Poles, or if you have difficulty performing activity safely in standing. For people living with Parkinson's, please consider taking this class as a follow up to the class provided in December.

INTENSITY-LEVEL: Low to Moderate. Elevates the heart rate and quickens breathing because it demands a noticeable yet manageable effort.
DURATION: Typically 45 minutes of movement including some standing and walking but mostly seated activity.
AT YOUR OWN RISK: By registering and/or participating in this class, you accept full responsibility for any risks, injuries, or damage, known or unknown, that you might incur due to participation. If you do not want to accept full responsibility, do not register or participate.
