Senior club night – play for points

Senior club night starts at 6.30pm.  We’re going to try something new and people can submit in advance that they want to play a game for points on the grading list.  Please email: hbprcsquash@gmail.com if you want to play for points.  Depending on numbers we will set aside some courts for points games and the other courts will have social games. Matt Taylor will run some coaching for people to take away and work on as well.

Gym Update

Group Exercise Classes 

Update: Change to Yoga and Bootcamp Starting Date

The yoga and bootcamp group fitness classes are set to start at HBPRC the week of August 13th. Yoga will be taking place every Tuesday morning from 9:30-10:30am starting August 14th, and the racket-centric fitness bootcamp will be every Wednesday from 6:15-7:00pm starting August 15th.  

If you're interested, please send an email to lukesniewski@gmail.com

 

HIIT Bootcamp – Wednesday, 6:15pm – 7:00pm

HIIT stands for high-intensity interval training. This 45-minute class is a full-body metabolic conditioning class that will have you crawling, jumping, stretching, pushing, and lunging into higher levels of fitness. The exercises and programming will be specifically catered to support racket sports, so expect to feel stronger and fitter in your game as you continue to attend classes.  

Yoga* – Tuesday, 9:30am – 10:30am  

The common misconception is that yoga is a lighter form of exercise, more suited for women than men. However, evidence suggests that a mind-body practice like yoga can be very effective in building strength and muscle, making it a valuable part of any fitness routine. Aside from an effective workout, you'll leave this class with a more flexible body and calmer mind.  

COST: Each class is $15 for Gym Members and $20 for Non-Members. 

Both classes will take place in the Squash Courts. To register your interest in the class and reserve a spot, email me directly: lukesniewski@gmail.com

*Please bring your own mat to class.
