Strength Training for Children (ages 7-11) 
This 45-minute class provides an excellent introduction to group workouts for children between ages 7-11. The class starts with cardio to warm up the muscles, followed by resistance training, and ends with cool-down exercises. Strength training for children does NOT involve weights. Instead, children will be led in light resistance training that emphasizes controlled movements, proper form, and safety. This class is designed to teach children the fundamentals for maintaining good fitness and help them increase muscle strength and endurance. Children will learn to protect their muscles and joints from sports-related injuries, which will help improve their performance. This class involves games to learn cooperation and working as part of a team. The instructor believes that children need to play but can also develop positive and healthy habits that will follow them the rest of their lives. Participants should bring a towel, exercise mat and water.
