NPower Services, a nonprofit organization that serves adults with disabilities, is excited to announce it will be partnering with the Geauga County YMCA beginning in 2025 to offer adaptive and inclusive athletic programming.
Two new programs will be on the YMCA schedule: RockAbiltiy Cardio Drumming and TNT (TRX and Treadmill strength and cardio training). Participants can register for both sessions through the Geauga Family YMCA website or call the YMCA at 440-285-7543.
RockAbility’s Cardio Drumming
Fridays, 10 – 11 a.m.
Jan. 17 – March 7, 2025
Cost: $80 Members, $160 Nonmembers
RockAbility Cardio Drumming is a fun and engaging activity that combines drumming with exercise, offering a creative way for people of all abilities to stay active. A RockAbility musician will lead these sessions, and will include some songs on this integrated band’s setlist. Using drumsticks and an exercise ball, participants drum to music, which not only provides a cardiovascular workout, but also improves coordination, motor skills, and rhythm. The activity is highly adaptable to different abilities, making it inclusive and accessible. It promotes social interaction, boosts self-confidence, and can help with stress relief – all while participants enjoy the energy and rhythm of the music. RockAbility Cardio Drumming is a creative, fun, and effective way to promote physical fitness and well-being.
“TNT” – TRX and Treadmill Strength and Cardio Training
Tuesdays, 5:15 – 6:15 p.m.
Jan. 28 – March 28, 2025
Cost: $90
TNT is an exciting new all-abilities physical strength and cardio program designed to challenge and inspire participants of all fitness levels. Combining TRX suspension training with a variety of strength equipment and weights, TNT focuses on building strength, stability, and endurance. The class may also incorporate cardio machines such as bikes, treadmills, and rowers, offering a dynamic, full-body workout that targets both cardiovascular fitness and muscular strength. At the start of the 8-week session, participants will be assessed to establish a baseline, and then reassessed at the end of the program to track and celebrate their progress. This structure allows everyone to see their improvements and stay motivated. TNT is inclusive, with modifications and support tailored to individual needs, ensuring all participants can engage at their own pace. Whether you’re looking to improve overall fitness, build muscle, or boost cardiovascular health, TNT offers a fun, supportive, and energizing way to reach your goals.
NPower Services is thrilled to be making physical fitness an important lifestyle component for adults of all abilities and thanks the Geauga Family YMCA for their commitment.
