These 45-minute large-group classes are designed for general strength and endurance improvement. Ideal for individuals who can follow along with minimal prompts in a group setting, these classes are great for those wanting to add exercise to their weekly routine.

Each workout is structured to benefit multiple attributes of overall fitness and is adaptable to all levels of experience.

The cost for the service is $22 per month (1 session per week) with the option to select the 5p session or 6p session as space in each allows. If a session is full, you can request to be added to the waiting list, and participants are moved into the class as space becomes available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Payment Information: No payment is required at registration. Please bypass the payment system by using the promo code "BILLME" at checkout. Scott Quaife, our Fitness & Nutrition Coordinator, will contact you to review the service and intake process. Billing occurs after completing a service agreement and an exercise assessment. This service is pre-billed at the beginning of each month. Grant funding is currently available for eligible Jackson and Platte County residents.

Neuru is a secure, all-in-one platform designed to help families manage the many moving parts of their loved one's care without the overwhelm. We centralize school plans, medical records, and therapy notes into one easy-to-use system, so everything you need is always in one place. You have the ability to import records directly from hospital systems like Advent, Children’s Mercy, St. Luke’s, University of Kansas Health System, and more.

Instead of juggling emails, binders, portals, and paperwork, families can quickly access, organize, and share critical information with teachers, therapists, doctors, and caregivers. Neuru helps ensure everyone on your child’s care team stays informed, aligned, and focused on what matters most: supporting your child’s growth and success.

Built with neurodiverse families in mind, Neuru reduces stress, saves time, and brings clarity to complex care, so families can spend less time managing logistics and more time being present.
