🎉💪 We have some VERY exciting news to share! 💪🎉 We're stepping into something NEW this November at Hartshorne Public Library! 👟❤️

Starting Tuesday, November 3rd, our twice-weekly adult exercise classes will be switching to SAIL (Staying Active and Independent for Life)! 🌟

SAIL is a wonderful exercise program designed to help adults improve their strength, balance, flexibility, and overall fitness, so they can stay active, healthy, and independent for years to come! 💪😊

✨ What makes SAIL so great? Exercises include a combination of gentle aerobics, balance, strength training, and stretching. Plus, exercises can be done standing OR seated, making this a welcoming option for a variety of fitness levels!

📅 Every Tuesday & Thursday
⏰ 2:00–3:00 PM
📍 Hartshorne Public Library
🎉 First class: November 3rd!

👟 Please wear comfortable clothing and athletic shoes (no sandals or flip-flops). You're welcome to bring your own weights, too!

Space is limited. Call us at 918-297-2113 to ask questions. First-time participants should arrive a little early to complete paperwork.

We're SO excited to bring this program to our community and help our neighbors stay strong, active, and independent! Whether you're looking to improve your balance, build strength, or simply enjoy moving alongside friendly faces, we'd LOVE to have you join us! 🥰💪

Let's into better health together! ⛵❤️
