The Centers for Disease Control states that less than 25% of Americans meet the recommended physical activity guidelines. Perhaps you don’t work out at all or only do it occasionally. Whatever the reason, if you are like most people, you probably need to up your game.
Group fitness classes are the most effective way to exercise consistently. Classes provide guidance, encouragement, camaraderie — and, most importantly, fun. It takes time to develop a new habit, and scheduling (and attending) classes is a great way to build new healthful routines into your week.
The Paseo Club is a social club in Santa Clarita that has served the community for over twenty years. We offer tennis, pickleball, swim, Pilates, and fitness programs. Although we are a great place to exercise, we are not the only destination for attending group fitness classes.
