Bē Health Fitness Classes in Richmond Hill
At the core of our Bē Health & Well-Being® program at Heartwood in Richmond Hill is your overall well-being. We encompass that in four buckets: physical, emotional/mental, spiritual and social/societal.
We've developed programming around these elements within the community to help Heartwood residents enhance all or specific elements they would like to focus on. One such area to help you achieve your well-being goals is through our fitness classes.
We offer numerous classes for adults, teens and kids of all physical levels. All classes are taught at The Outfitters Building or along the St. Joseph's/Candler Walking Trail that twists and turns throughout the community.
