JOIN THE FUN AND GET GOOD EXERCISE! Mondays and Wednesdays from 10-11 AM Beginning June 25th

Get in the swim – and have some fun! No – we’re not giving swimming lessons, but we are offering a series of wonderful exercises in the pool! Our instructor is a certified lifeguard, who will lead us in stimulating water exercises that will strengthen muscle tone and help us improve our stamina, using the resistance of water. Exercises are fun and not at all strenuous; everyone will have a wonderful time. To quote one of our residents: “thanks for running the water exercise classes. They are really worthwhile and so much fun!” We urge you to come join us. Just bring a towel and a bathing suit and get ready for fun and laughter.

Please note: this series consists of two classes per week for 8 weeks and is for East Hills resident adults only. Classes will be held on Mondays and Wednesdays from 10AM to 11AM beginning Monday, June 25th. A standard release form is required to be signed at the first session.

Funny Girl, the musical, opened on Broadway in 1964 with a book by Isobel Lennart, music by Jule Styne, and lyrics by Bob Merrill. The show ran for four years. Funny Girl the movie was released in 1968, starring Barbra Streisand as the vibrant and beautiful young Fanny Brice who starts out as a bit player in the NYC Vaudeville stage but works her way up to stardom on Broadway. Fanny Brice was valued for her vocal and comedic talents by the renowned theatre impresario Florenz Ziegfeld. Fanny thrives in the theatre but her relationship with her suave, imprisoned husband, Nick Arnstein is another story.
