Fitness Center Updates

Here at the Alper JCC, we recognize you as the individual you are–from the moment you’re greeted by our staff to the moment you step on our Precor fitness equipment, which connects to our Wi-Fi network and uses Preva® technology to load your personal workout profile, helping you maximize your workouts and reach your goals.

 

 

In addition to truly state-of-the-art equipment, our recently upgraded management platform for classes, reservations, and personal training, MindBody, will further empower you to get the most out of your fitness membership. Reserve a space in any one our 75-plus weekly group exercise classes online or with MindBody’s easy-to-use mobile app. Receive a text notification if a spot opens up in a class that you’re on the waiting list for, or connect your Fitbit to MindBody’s app to view personal activity data achieved during your workouts.

Stop by the Membership Welcome Desk in the Futernick Family Fitness Center or contact Membership Services today to schedule a personalized tour and see for yourself how the JCC makes fitness personal.
