A Tufts University program developed by Dr. Marion Nelson is offering daily
strength training classes. Women (and men) participate in 45-minutes to 1 hour
of prescribed strength training routines using free weights and leg weights,
which are provided as part of the cost of the class. Participants in these
classes have realized improvements in endurance, balance, flexibility and
overall strength.
DATES: On-going classes -- Daily M-F
TIME/ COST: MWF 12:15 pm $35/8 weeks, TTH 8:30 am $30/8 weeks
LOCATION: OSU Extension Auditorium, 569 Hanley Road, Central Point
Note: Participants who continue to take the 8-week series pay $15 (MWF) and $10
(TTH) for 8-weeks of training after their first 8 weeks. Additional leaders have
been trained and other Strong Women programs can be held throughout the valley
if facilities are available. If you want a class near you, we have leaders if
you have locations.
