Strength Training for Seniors 60+ (AEES-539)

Strength Training for Seniors 60+  REMOTE LIVE
In a strength training class, you’ll be using weights, bands, or your body, in a way that creates resistance. We use resistance to build strength, tone muscle, shed fat, burn calories — and it’s all packed into one workout. As you’re lifting weights, you’re growing new, stronger bones and muscles which can help you to squat down pick something up, get up from the floor or reach your arms overhead to put something in the overhead bin of an airplane.

The French and Indian War and the Revolutionary War for Seniors 60+ (AEVS-049)

NEW! The French and Indian War and the Revolutionary War for Seniors 60+: This course examines life in British Colonial America during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.

Special attention is given to the French and Indian War (1756–1763) and its consequences. The course analyzes the growing political, economic, and social tensions between the British colonies and Great Britain during the 1760s and 1770s, culminating in the North American War of Independence (1775–1783). If time permits, the course concludes with an overview of the postwar period of the 1780s, leading to the Constitutional Convention and the drafting and signing of the United States Constitution.

Yang Style Tai Chi Chapter 2 & Qi Gong for Seniors 60+ (AEES-094)

NEW! Yang Style Tai Chi Chapter 2 & Qi Gong for Seniors 60+: Tai Chi and Qi Gong are gentle, low impact movement practices that support balance, flexibility, and relaxation. Tai Chi uses slow, flowing movements that encourage mindfulness and ease, often compared to the movement of water. Qi Gong focuses on shorter movements and breathing, with some exercises held briefly in comfortable positions.

Both practices are suitable for all skill levels and can be adapted to individual needs. Each class begins with a gentle warm up, includes short breaks for questions and hydration, and ends with calming Qi Gong exercises to help you feel relaxed and refreshed.
