Join us in War Memorial Gymnasium for Fitness Bootcamps lead by a Virtual Instructor from the fitness professionals at Evolve Fitness. Evolve Fitness is based out of Halifax and turned to running online bootcamps when the pandemic first closed their in-person facility. The one-hour bootcamps offer both live and pre-recorded options.
Individuals are welcome to bring their own yoga mat or resistance bands (there will be no weights). We ask you wear clean sneakers that will not harm or leave markings on the floor. Participants must bring their own sweat towel and water bottle (already filled - water fountains are not available). This Bootcamp will be lead by a virtual instructor through EVOLVE FITNESS in War Memorial Gymnasium. Participants should arrive 5 minutes prior through the main AAC doors marked Fitness Centre, Raymond Field, War Memorial Gym to be checked in by staff. Boot Camp will begin at posted time.
All time-slots are preregistered through: https://acadiau.legendonlineservices.ca/enterprise/account/login
