Thank you to all who joined us for our first live workout for Get Fit Don't Sit Day! We had so much fun connecting with all of you for some midday movement that we are going to make it a regular occurrence.
Employee Wellness and Recreational Services are pleased to announce we will offer live virtual workouts every Tuesday and Thursday from noon – 1 p.m. starting May 14. Join Recreation Program Coordinator, Beth Michel, for a 45-minute total body workout that will incorporate cardio, strength and flexibility and can be completed in the comfort of your own home.
This version of Total Body Toning will focus on bodyweight exercises, so no equipment is required, and all fitness levels are welcome. All you need is comfortable clothing (shoes optional), a bottle of water, and an internet connection to participate.
The workouts will be live streamed via Zoom. Pre-registration is required for each session. You will receive your Zoom link the day before your class and another reminder the morning of so be sure to register for each Tuesday and/or Thursday you plan to participate. Since these are Zoom events, you may choose to open your webcam so other participants can see you, but you can keep it closed if you prefer not to be seen. Zoom also offers a chat feature, so you can interact with your fellow Flashes while breaking a sweat.
These classes are open to all full- and part-time faculty and staff. Full time employees participating in the Wellness Your Way Rewards Program can earn 10 Tier 2 points for each class. Make sure to include your first and last name when you enter the Zoom event to ensure we can capture your attendance and award your points accordingly. Login before 12:15 as class will begin promptly at 12:15.
The May and June classes are posted, and registration is open now. Visit our digital wellness calendar to register. We are excited to bring Team Kent State back together again!
