A variety of aerobic classes from beginner and senior classes to highly challenging kick boxing and step sessions are available at convenient times.

Although Andy’s is a membership facility completely funded by Non-appropriated Fund dollars, you will find the value (service, equipment, amenities) outstanding.

In fact, Andy’s offers the total relaxation of saunas and steam rooms in both men’s and women’s locker rooms and air conditioning throughout the facility - amenities you won’t find anywhere else on post.

Locker Rentals Available
You may now rent lockers in the men’s and women’s locker rooms. The charge is $5 per month and the lockers must be cleaned out quarterly. Please see the front desk at the Community Activities Center to sign-up and pay for the lockers. Locks will be provided and a waiting list
will be made if necessary.

MWR Young & Fit

Beginning July 12, 2008 MWR will offer fitness programs for young adults.  In conjunction with the Child and Youth Services child care program, MWR knows the importance of fitness being made available to the adult and the young adult community.  Children aged 12 to 17 can now participate in a fitness program designed especially for them.

Every Saturday the MWR Young & Fit program hours are from 8am to 12noon.  Starting at 8 am we will begin with strength training programs until 11am.  An interval workout will begin next.  This one hour class will feature flowing drill exercises that will target the entire body.  Although created for our Young & Fit population, we encourage parents to join in and workout side by side with them.

The Young & Fit program comes complete with weekly handouts designed to help encourage lifestyle changes, bring awareness to better physical health and more.  For more information contact Pam Greene at 751-5768 or come by the Solomon center Saturday morning and get started.

“Get Ripped”

By Pamela Greene,
Fitness Programmer, MWR

One of the best things we can do for our bodies is get our health under control.  This can be hard to do especially if your after 5pm hours are as hectic as your daytime hours.  With that challenge on the table many companies are doing their part to help employees by making exercise at work.  This stands true because most people spend the better part of each day at work.

To continue to provide programs that meet the needs of employees “Get Ripped” was launched.  One of the most popular forms of exercise going today is circuit training.  It’s a time saver workout that really delivers quality results for the entire body.  Circuit training has so many benefits to offer to the new to exercise or the already committed exerciser.  Our 30 minute programs are available Monday through Friday beginning at 11:00am to 2:00pm over at Knight Pool. 

Being able to get your exercise in during your day (before picking up children and cooking dinner) is one of many great reasons to give “Get Ripped” a try.  Our goal is to bring variety to a stagnant workout, improve your stamina, strength and so much more.  

Here it is your turn to take control of your health by joining us and embrace your journey on the path of health and fitness.

For additional information, please contact Pam Greene at 751-5768
