The most difficult step of a New Year's resolution is getting it started. The Great Bend Recreation Commission is there to help. Dixie Divis, group fitness instructor, said the next session of activities beginning on Jan. 6 is a good way to set any new fitness goals into motion.
"We have cardio," she said. "We have strength, indoor cycling, suspension training, Tai Chi, yoga. There is something for everybody. We also have schedules that will fit pretty much anybody's schedule. We have classes that start as early at 5:15 a.m. and we have classes that go as late as 7 p.m."
The Great Bend Rec's winter-spring brochure should be arriving in mailboxes in the next 7-10 days. Registration for classes that begin in February is Jan. 13. Divis said the Rec classes are a unique way to sustain some of those New Year's resolutions.
"One of the benefits of group fitness is you have the accountability of everybody else in the class," she said. "It also can be very social. If you're wanting to expand your friend circle a little bit, this is a great chance to meet new people."
Registration is still available for the Jan. 6 session. Sign up for classes by visiting greatbendrec.com or by stopping by the Rec at 1214 Stone Street in Great Bend.
