Vintage Classes and Activities - Spring 2008

  • Unless noted, classes are ongoing and do not have beginning and end dates.
  • Check out Vintage’s “Passport to Wellness”!
    • Your passport will take you to a variety of fitness classes: T’ai Chi Chuan, Yoga, Laughter Club & SilverSneakers (if your health insurance doesn’t cover it for free).
    • Passports are $16 ($21 nonmembers) for 8 sessions of your choice – or – get two sessions free by getting a 16 session passport for $28 ($37 nonmembers).
    • Mix it up and try a combination of different classes on the same passport.
    • It’s a great value too. Pay only for classes you actually attend.
  • Eligible SilverSneakers participants with swipe cards (must have Highmark SecurityBlue, MediGap Blue or Freedom Blue insurance) will get free admission into these fitness activities: Fitness Studio (after registration & training), T’ai Chi, Yoga, Soul Line Dance, Health Education Events, & Laughter Yoga Club.
