    Elective PE 1st Marking Period (grades 9-12)
     

    Muscular Strength and Cardiovascular Endurance Training 

    This course is designed to give students the opportunity to learn fitness concepts and conditioning techniques used for obtaining optimal physical fitness. Students will benefit from comprehensive weight training and cardiorespiratory endurance activities. Students will learn the basic fundamentals of strength training, aerobic training, and overall fitness training and conditioning. Course includes both lectures and activity sessions. Students will be empowered to make wise choices, meet challenges, and develop positive behaviors in fitness, wellness, and movement activity for a lifetime. 

    Yoga & Meditation 

    Yoga & Meditation is a complete mind/body experience. With a portion of the class dedicated to mindful movement, and another portion dedicated to intentionally tuning into the breath and body through meditation, this class will leave you clear-minded and relaxed.

    Heart Pump

    This course combines cardiorespiratory activities and flexibility exercises to help educate students on the importance of fitness as a lifetime activity.  The course focus is based on physical fitness as outlined through individual goals set by each student. For example- walk/run intervals, couch to 5K, and a variety of aerobic activities based on the classes interest. Activities could include; aerobics, Zumba, step, ect. 

    For this elective we would alternate between Yoga and Meditation and heart pump. Weather permitting. It will be capped at 35 students per class.
