Our friends from SPICE Studio will teach a stroller fitness class, followed by a storytime presented by the library!
SPICE Studio will provide a 30-min workout incorporating power walking, jogging, and/or running with functional interval training to help you build endurance, strength, and core. Caregivers are led through movements that train their bodies for mom (or dad, or other caregiver) life. Suitable for all levels of fitness, no matter where you are in your fitness journey. Babies are there with you the entire time and entertained with whatever it takes to help you get in your workout for the day.
Q: What do I need to bring?
A: Your stroller, your little(s), a yoga mat for core work, water for you and your baby, a towel if you get sweaty. Sunscreen, bug spray, and hats are also recommended.
Q: What should I wear? What should my baby wear?
A: Dress in athletic attire and running shoes. Also dress for the weather and in layers that you can remove as the workout progresses. Please also dress your baby for the weather – blankets, hats, etc.
Q: Do I need a jogging stroller?
A: Jogging strollers are not required. Most walking, jogging, or running will be on sidewalks or roads. Make sure your stroller is sturdy and also has a working brake as strollers will be parked at stations.
Q: What time should I arrive?
A: Try to arrive a few minutes before class begins to give you time to set up your stroller and get your baby settled. Warm-up will begin right at 9:30am.
Q: Can my child get out of the stroller and walk with me?
A: For safety reasons, all babies and children must be buckled into their strollers from warm-up to cool down. This also allows YOU to focus on your workout. While some kiddos may fuss and cry at first, we promise they will adjust and we are there to help you every step of the way with whatever it takes to keep them entertained to allow you to focus on you.
Q: What if it rains or if the weather is inclement?
A: Depending on the level of the rain at class-time, we will have an indoor option available.
