University of Delaware Cooperative Extension offers physical activity programs

Posted

The University of Delaware Cooperative Extension will be holding two physical activity programs.

“Walk With Ease” will be held April 19-May 24 and is an introductory-level, basic course that provides techniques to begin and maintain a successful walking program. Created by experts at the Arthritis Foundation, topics will include exercising safely and comfortably, improving flexibility, building strength and reducing pain.

The cost is $20 for the six-week session, which will be available in two formats: a Zoom series (live 45-minute classes with a group, Wednesdays at 11 a.m.) or an email series (weekly self-guided classes).

For information and to register before April 5, visit udel.edu/0010285. To apply for a scholarship, contact Nancy Mears at mears@udel.edu before registering.

A second Cooperative Extension course, “Walk+Roll,” will be presented in partnership with community organizations throughout the state.

Led by staff who are CPR-certified, sessions will consist of a warm-up, light stretching, walking/rolling exercises and a cool-down. Spring sites include Seaford, Dover, Wilmington and Newark.

There is no cost, but registration is due by May 27 at udel.edu/0010285.
