Strong Women Program

STRONG WOMEN Instructors:

Tufts University Trained Program Leaders (Sue Rode, Jane Schlacht, Yolanda Gentile); offer daily strength training classes. Women (and men) participate in 1 hour of prescribed strength training routines using free weights and leg weights, which are provided as part of the cost of the class. Participants in these classes have realized improvements in endurance, balance,  flexibility and overall strength.  (They have fun too!) OSU Extension Auditorium,     569 Hanley Road, Central Point.
