FITNESS FRIDAY - August 7th, 2026

Ballroom- A Great Place to Work Out and Stay Cool

Consider using the ballroom for some or all of your next workout. As long as there is not a class or event, members are welcome to utilize the fabulous space.  Be careful not to mark the walls, floor, or ceiling while working out.

Workout ideas include:

  • a dynamic warmup before playing tennis

  • static stretching after working out‍ ‍

  • performing agility, footwork, and speed drills‍ ‍

  • a HIIT workout‍

  • using free weights for strength training

  • performing yoga, mat Pilates, etc.

Air Conditioning and TV/Music

There are two mini splits for air conditioning (and heating) along the north walls.  Use the remote to turn them on and off by standing under the splits and pointing the remote directly at one or both of them.   The remote is located near the lights on the north walls.

You can connect your phone or computer to the large TV on the east wall to listen to music, watch workout videos, etc.  Just ask staff if you have questions.

When Done

Please turn off the air conditioning, the lights, and return all equipment back to the gym.

Thanks!
