Strong Bodies classes start up again

University of Wisconsin-Madison Division of Extension of Shawano County will again be offering the Strong Bodies program, an exercise program for middle-aged and older adults.

Classes are offered in Bonduel, Birnamwood, Wittenberg, Shawano and Tigerton. Classes are held twice weekly, and each class includes progressive weight training, flexibility and balance activities. Penny Schmitt is coordinating the programs.

All instructors have been trained in the Strong Bodies program and have had personal successes in participating and leading strength training.

The cost is $25 per quarter. Scholarships are available.
