@Senior Center Stix Fitness (often called seated drum fitness) is a fun, music-based group exercise. Participants sit in chairs with a stationary exercise ball in front of them and use drum sticks to tap the ball to the beat of a song. Movements are simple and rhythmic (alternating hands, tapping patterns, light reaches or twists), and one person at a time takes a turn leading the group and choosing the movement pattern for each song. It combines light cardio, coordination, cognitive engagement, and social interaction â making it an energizing, low-impact workout that feels more like fun than exercise. https://www.onslowcountync.gov/calendar.aspx?EID=21624

@Senior Center Stix Fitness (often called seated drum fitness) is a fun, music-based group exercise. Participants sit in chairs with a stationary exercise ball in front of them and use drum sticks to tap the ball to the beat of a song. Movements are simple and rhythmic (alternating hands, tapping patterns, light reaches or twists), and one person at a time takes a turn leading the group and choosing the movement pattern for each song. It combines light cardio, coordination, cognitive engagement, and social interaction â making it an energizing, low-impact workout that feels more like fun than exercise. https://www.onslowcountync.gov/calendar.aspx?EID=21625
