Cardio drumming takes minimal supplies and a kit can usually be assembled for around $25-30. \nWhat it’s look like?\nHow much fun is this? You know you want to try it!

SUMMARY:Cardio Drumming
DESCRIPTION:Cardio drumming is a high-energy workout that combines rhythmic drumming with full-body movements to upbeat music. Using a stability ball\, drumsticks\, and a bucket\, participants drum\, dance\, and sweat their way through a heart-pumping routine that’s as fun as it is effective. It’s a great way to burn calories\, boost coordination\, and relieve stress—all while feeling like a rockstar! No experience needed and great for all fitness levels!  \nCardio Drumming classes will be led by Nicole Smolenak on MONDAY nights at 6 pm. Starting in December\, the cardio drumming classes will be on Monday nights. \nNote: The Library has six cardio drumming kits available for people new to cardio drumming to test out\, but regular participants are encouraged to bring their own gear. \nWhat do you need to get started cardio drumming?\n\nA large inflated exercise ball\nA large bucket or basket to hold the ball (the opening should be just slightly smaller than the circumference of the ball so that the ball is suspended in the basket/bucket).\nDrumsticks\nEnthusiasm!\n\nThat’s it! Cardio drumming takes minimal supplies and a kit can usually be assembled for around $25-30. \nWhat it’s look like?\nHow much fun is this? You know you want to try it!
