Registration to open for spring-summer programming at Strangway Centre

The Strangway Centre will be opening up new activities for the spring and summer seasons.

Registration for the programs opens on Tuesday, March 19.

Activities Programmer Mike Neely said the goal was to try to offer a diverse selection of activities.

"We have some of your arts and culture in the ceramic painting workshops that will be added, English lessons, advanced leather molding," said Neely. "Photography lessons will actually be making a return after taking a hiatus."

There will also be some new fitness programs like Qi Gong, Latin Groovz dance class, total body strength resistance training, and a FitFusion.

"This will be a more comprehensive fitness class looking at flexibility, weight training, cardio and the addition of a nutrition aspect to that program too," he said.

He said he's heard from people around the centre that they're looking forward to some of the new programs.

"I think the other (programs) that have new instructors with the new program are going to draw some attention because there was a demand for them, we obviously have a reason for adding programs like this," said Neely.

The Strangway Centre will also have the programs people know and love for this season.

"We have high demand for several different programs so, I know that a lot of those will go quick," Neely said.

There will be both drop-in and registration based programs throughout the two programming sessions.

"Our drop-in programs are nice for people to just do a little test run because they're not tied to any set duration or set cost," said Neely.

The program lineup is available online and when registration is open it will stay that way until the programs are full.

Programs at the Strangway Centre are available for people 20 years and older.
