Our growing student population needs more space in which to participate in safe Physical Education classes. Our building is fortunate to have an auxiliary gym space that can be used, but it has limitations due to square footage and a low ceiling. Our goal is to transform this space into a safer and more functional space, such as a fitness lab, equipped with a variety of different exercise/fitness equipment. This equipment will allow a coach to pull 1 class (20-26 students) out of the large gym six times/day on a rotation schedule. This rotation will ensure all remaining students in the large gym receive a safer PE class, as well as allowing students pulled to the auxiliary gym get to participate in a variety of different fitness/cardio geared activities safe and appropriate for that space. We've already started on this project by adding aerobic steps and hand weights into the space. We'd like to add resistance bands and medicine balls for more activity options. With this equipment, we can add to our program activities such as: cardio drumming, yoga/stretch, weightlifting/toning, and step aerobics.
