FitPHX Announces Fall Schedule For Free Virtual Programs In Phoenix

Press release from the City of Phoenix:

September 28, 2020

FitPHX, the city's healthy community initiative, will continue to provide free activities through a virtual platform this fall. Thanks to the sponsorship of AARP Arizona and other supporting partners, FitPHX's popular Fall Into Fitness and Fitness Boot Camp series will start their fall schedules in October and be streamed using the Zoom app.

The 10-week Fall Into Fitness program starts October 6 and a four-week session of Fitness Boot Camp gets underway October 19. The fall schedule also features the new monthly Morning Yoga series that began in July and runs through December.

Previously offered as in-person activities in Margaret T. Hance Park in downtown Phoenix, these programs were moved to an online format during the summer due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Hundreds of community members took advantage of the virtual option.

While the programs are free, registration is required. Registered participants will receive a unique code to virtually join the live stream via Zoom. Participants will also need to download the free Zoom app through the iTunes or Android store, or search for and download it through their internet service provider.
