Riding the Waves at Mississauga Community Centres

City services | December 13, 2022

There’s nothing like the feeling of a relaxing bike ride down a scenic route. Did you know that Mississauga has many options to choose from when riding through the beautiful city?

Mississauga’s trails, paths and parks are always popular and for good reason, but for anyone that is looking for a little something extra with their ride, the City’s community centres are answering your call.

Riding in the warm, welcoming sunshine, fabulous. Cycling as the vibrantly coloured leaves fall casually in your path, magical. Pedaling in a blanket of warm water, perfect.

Wait, what?

You read that right. Aqua Cycle is a popular Mississauga pastime that blends cardio with leg, arm and core strengthening exercises while reducing the impact on joints.

Don’t worry, you don’t have to be preparing for the Tour de Mississauga to take part, classes include options for all fitness levels.

If you reserve your pool time for relaxation, no worries. There are many land-based therapeutic classes available that you may not be aware of.

For instance, gentle programs are designed with options to help you move at a comfortable pace. Choose from a variety of activities including Chair-ercise, Zumba Therapeutic and Drumming Fit Therapeutic.

Drumming is therapeutic? You bet it is.

This total body and brain workout has attendees using drumsticks on a stability ball. The class combines motivating music with upper and lower body movements, it can be done standing or seated, and is appropriate for all fitness levels.

Get out of your house and into your local community centre today. It will definitely be worth it.

Stop by online for more information on drop-in and registered programs.
