BROWARD COUNTY, FL – Broward County Parks and Recreation Division’s Special Populations Section, in partnership with the Supportabilities Foundation, offers another round of the Virtual Cross-Round Fitness program, to teach self-defense through non-contact boxing and to promote physical fitness through adaptive exercises. The program, for ages 18 and up with physical disabilities, runs on Tuesdays from 4:15 to 5PM, starting on June 15th and ending on August 3rd.

Each class will consist of a warmup, an introduction to defense techniques and boxing drills, cardiovascular and agility exercises, and a cooldown. The program will introduce strategies of self-defense and adaptive exercises for participants to develop physical, emotional, and social confidence in themselves. Consistent attendance is required for the entire session, as each week participants will build on techniques and exercises learned in the prior week’s class.

The program is free, but class size is limited For further information or to register, call Special Populations at 954-357-8170, or email SpecialPopulations@Broward.org. Zoom meeting ID and password will be provided to registered participants only.
