Robin's Zumba® classes have been running strong for over 11 years through the Wells Ogunquit Adult Ed. Zumba® is dance exercise for people who don't consider themselves dancers but love to dance. The hour flies by and you will get a great workout. Robin uses fun, high energy music and the moves are basic and repeated enough times so that you really know them. Plus one of the best things about Zumba® is the emphasis on modifying the moves to make them your own.  Questions about the class? Contact Robin via her Zumba website (Robin Lovell - Instructor Page (zumba.com), or Wells-Ogunquit Adult Ed. No Class on NOV 23

There are 20 different muscles involved in hip flexibility. Too  much sitting puts pressure on the low back. Tight hips have  a direct impact on knees and low back. We start in simple  positions, use breath work for deep relaxation and progress as range increases. Flexibility is key in enhancing your  overall daily function. The class is designed for anyone to  participate, no matter what your skill level is, no experience  necessary. Please bring a soft pillow or yoga block to class.

We are living in a vibrant, multicultural community. Portland Adult Education has assembled a “Culture Club” to offer seminars, each focusing on a different immigrant community. Things like art, music, food, clothing and language will be displayed, along with the ability for conversation and questions. PAE is excited to offer this unique way for the community to embrace and learn more about each other. The first two events will be in November and December. (The $5 fee will be a donation to the PAE Culture Club to fund seminars. Please register for each event separately.)

Don't let past injuried, pain or limited range of motion keep you from your fitness goals.  Yamuna® Body Rolling is a modality that uses balls of different sizes and densities to target superficial skin, fascia, muscle fibers, tendons, ligaments, bones, internal organs and the nervous system.  This work creates length and strength to the tissues, creates space in the body, increases circulation, and improves range of motion.  This body sustainablility program is for all levels and gives people distinct methods to work on themselves in order to sustain their postures, flexibilities, strengths, and alignments throughout their lives.

• Healthy, Happy Hips
  The hips are on of the most used and troubling joints in the body, bringing tightness and stiffness with age.  We will work to release the muscles of the pelvis around the hip joint including psoas, the glutes and external rotators.  Intergrating these routines into your life will help to prevent the breakdown of the hip joint and keep your hips healthy for years to come.

• Free Your Shoulders
  Most problems in the shoulder involve the muscles, ligaments, and tendons, rather than the bones.  Repetitive use and age can place wear and tear on the muscles that make up the rotator cuff.  We will work to open the chest and create space in the shoulders.
