New dance class joins the range of activities available
February 8th, 2013
We have details of an exciting new dance class which will be the highlight of our latest range of exercise classes starting in Ipswich and Felixstowe later this month.
‘Bokwa’ is a fun cardio workout combining African dance movements with boxing moves. The free six-week course is the latest addition to our range of activities which includes sessions in ‘Zumba for Beginners’, ‘Begin to Spin’, and ‘Keep Fit’. Each course combines moderate to high intensity workouts with practical sessions about how to improve your general health.
For those looking for a gentler option, we are also offering ‘Chair-based’ exercise classes for those with limited mobility or recovering from injury. There are also new practical ‘Cook and Eat’ classes available to teach people useful tips on how to cook healthy meals on a budget.
Richard Crick, Senior Community Health Coach for Live Well Suffolk, said: “We are delighted to be expanding our range of courses and the new Bokwa course is a really fun way to help people tone up, get more active and meet new people. We listen to the feedback from people who take part in our classes and we know that they are a great way to help people take small steps to a healthier lifestyle.”
