| We
have two types of programs: Registered programs & non-registered
programs.
Registered programs include
Specialty, Pilates, Yoga, Aquafitness, Spinning and Strength
classes. Sign up for a particular class and attend from the
beginning of the session until the end. Classes that do not
meet a minimum number of participants may be cancelled at
the beginning of the session, so be sure to sign up early!
Non-registered programs
include Group Fitness, Fitness Centre Memberships, and one-on-one
programs like Personal Training, Fitness Appraisals &
Reflexology. These programs may be participated in at any
time with the appropriate pass or purchase of a session. Online
registration is not available for these programs because you
must obtain a pass from Customer Service. |
Join our free, informal running group that
will help improve your power, endurance & speed. We meet Tuesday
evenings at 6:30pm at the downstairs doors, rain or shine (or snow!).
Stretches, warmups and cool downs will start and finish every workout.
Workouts are posted in advance near the pool
desk or by clicking here.
Call 613-798-8950 ext. 229 for info.

Alternating
Classes in Group Fitness:
Many of our instructors alternate with
another instructor for a given time slot & class. Some instructors
also alternate different formats of class each week. Here is a guide

Fitness
for young people: The Health
and Fitness department is offering more programs aimed at
kids and young adults. Existing programs have been made more
accessible with lower age limits. Our Fitness Centre (weight
room) is open to 16 yrs and older; and to 14 & 15 yr olds
if accompanied by an adult (the Centre is not supervised).
Inquire about age requirements for other fitness programs.
We have also created the Youth
Fitness Menu & Kids-n-motion programs. Teachers
can engage us to add zip to phys-ed classes by bringing their
students to Dovercourt, or have our instructors visit their
school. Choose from a wide variety of fitness classes and
our Aquatic Survival package. Call 613-798-8950 ext. 227 for
details.
