Eden Prairie's upcoming community center programs are catering to a wide range of interests and age groups, offering everything from sound baths to Zumba. The City of Eden Prairie has posted a bulletin detailing a variety of sessions starting this January.
One of the highlights includes the Sound Bath sessions, a relaxing experience advertised to engage the meditative state through full-bodied sound waves slated for January 23 and February 21 at the City Center. These sessions are designed for participants aged 12 and up. In contrast, those preferring seated exercises can join in on the Seated Tai Chi classes held Tuesdays from February 10 through March 17 at Staring Lake Park Building, welcoming individuals aged 12 and over.
For something more dynamic, the Inflatable Obstacle Course in the Eden Prairie Community Center dive pool is scheduled for February 28. It offers challenges for those aged 8 and above to navigate the course, with an added benefit of access to Open Swim. Meanwhile, Lunar New Year celebrations get a fitness spin with Family Zumba sessions on Saturday, February 10, open to ages 6 and up.
If you're interested in racquet sports, consider picking up a paddle at the Pickleball Clinic: Learn to Play on February 15, March 15, or April 19. Intended for those 18 and older, the session aims to teach the basics and builds confidence on the court. And for women navigating the changes of perimenopause and menopause, the "Muscles and Menopause" discussion and workout session on February 22 provides insight on strength training tailored to their needs.
All program details, including costs and exact times, are listed on the city's recreation page. Those interested can learn more about the programs or sign up by following the provided information online. With such varied programs on the docket, the local community center is poised to become a hub of activity and wellness in the coming weeks.
