Memberships include FREE access to weekly fitness classes and club activities, led by certified fitness experts.
 

The Nile Fitness Program was established during the Pandemic of 2020 as we discussed and noticed the needs of our community physically and mentally. Although the pandemic is behind us, the physical and mental needs of our community is a continued void that we’d like to fill. Making our classes fun yet effective is our fitness goal of our programs.

 

Memberships include FREE access to weekly fitness classes and club activities, led by certified fitness experts. According to the CDC, new analysis shows that younger African Americans are living with or dying of many conditions typically found in white Americans at older ages. The difference shows up in African Americans in their 20s, 30s, and 40s for diseases and causes of death. When diseases start early, they can lead to death earlier. From Aqua Zumba to Line Dancing we kept our Membership moving. Our partnership with The Transformation Yoga Project exposed our members and guests to classes for adults and children. The CDC reports that only half of adults get the physical activity they need to help reduce and prevent chronic diseases. Less than one-quarter (24%) of children 6 to 17 years of age participate in 60 minutes of physical activity every day. Participating in The Nile exercise program can help our children reduce risk of depression, improves aerobic & muscular fitness, lower blood pressure, and more. By adding exercise, our adult members can lower their risk of stroke and heart disease. It improves aerobic fitness, mental health, reduces arthritis symptoms and prevents weight gain.

 

In 2025, we will continue to build the wellness program which includes both land and water offerings
