Fitness Orientation
Fitness Orientation is a FREE service in which a Fitness World
personal trainer meets with you and 3 - 4 other members to discuss your
health and fitness goals, assess your physical fitness and level of
readiness, customize a workout program for you, and show you how to do
the various exercises prescribed. The instructor will show you how to
use all of the cardiovascular equipment, the circuit weight training
machines, and the cable system and climbing wall if you desire.
Fitness Orientation is a great choice for new members, people who have special fitness goals, needs, or limitations, or those who just want to try something new. You can schedule an appointment at any time of the year, and while we ask that you don't abuse the service, it is available free of charge for as many sessions as you feel you need. Meeting in a group setting is a fun way to learn new exercises and meet new friends!
Sessions need to be booked in advance at the front desk. Cancellations need to be made 24 hours in advance of appointment.
