Southampton, NY—Southampton Intermediate School Physical Education Teacher Jayne Katz collaborated with Southampton Hospital’s Ed & Phyllis Davis Wellness Institute during American Heart Month in February to create a 5-week course for students to sample a variety of exercise styles, including: Boot Camp, Pilates, Stretch & Tone, Interval Training, and Zumba. The Wellness Institute’s Certified Fitness Instructors Maureen Lerch and Cristal Schultheis visited a sixth grade class to demonstrate a heart-pumping, Tabata-style interval workout to remind students that heart health starts early.
