Ursuline Center offers Silver Sneakers

CANFIELD

The Ursuline Center, 4250 Shields Road, is accepting participants for its Healthways SilverSneakers Fitness Programs. The land and water classes give older adults the chance to stretch and exercise at their own pace.

The center offers two types of SilverSneakers land classes. In classes for muscular strength and range of movement, participants use provided weights, elastic bands and balls to improve strength and agility. In the cardio circuit classes, the fitness equipment is used coupled with nonimpact aerobic activity.

Classes are offered from 8:30 to 9:30 a.m. or 10 to 11 a.m. Mondays and Wednesdays. Many health care plans cover the classes. The cost is minimal for those who self-pay.

Aquatic classes take place from 10:45 to 11:45 a.m. or noon to 1 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays.
