Often fitness equipment can be intimidating and complicated to operate.  The fitness center offers easy to operate equipment and a coach to encourage people on their fitness journey.  The fitness center also includes:

• A Yoga studio and large group space for Zumba, Pilates and Strength/Balance classes is also in the plan.
• The 56’ x 32’ pool is the perfect place for aquatic classes, “water walking” and personal swim time.Check out the Aerobic Room & Pool Schedules Here
• Following a workout, the reward will be relaxing in a 9’x 13’ whirlpool.

The goal is to offer affordable memberships so people can maintain balance and strength.  Exercise is great medicine for controlling chronic disease management.

• 86 Million Americans have pre-diabetes- 10% know they have it. Diet/exercise can reduce risk of developing diabetes by 60% with 30 minutes of exercise 5 times a week.
• 80% of heart disease and strokes can be prevented through physical activity and nutrition.
• Falls cause 90% of hip fractures, ER visits and death. One in three people over 65 will suffer a fall in any one given year.

Working on balance/strength is vital at any level of ability!

The total cost of this new fitness center with the pool is $3.5 million.  Shorehaven believes so strongly in the health and welfare of our lake country community that we invested $2 million in this program.  So that we may improve the health of the lake country senior community, our goal was to raise $1.5 million through pledges and gifts by Fall of 2016, allowing us to complete the fitness center by Fall of 2017.
