Mason Community Center is proud to feature the Mason Swim Academy, presenting learn-to-swim instruction based on a proven lesson program developed by SwimAmerica™. Students will be taught by certified coaches as they progress through ten stations of competency.

The SwimAmerica format was developed by experienced Olympic coaches and is offered in cooperation with the Mason Manta Rays swim team, one of the top swim teams of its size in the country. Let the team’s experience help you or your child become a competent swimmer even if you do not expect to swim competitively.

Group swim lessons are for children 3 to 17 years old. Adults interested in swim lessons are invited to register for private or semi-private swim lessons. All lessons are held in the Leisure Pool unless otherwise noted.

Volunteer to be a CoachPart of the success of the Mason Swim Academy is due to many men and women who volunteer to coach or assistant coach. If you have past experience swimming, coaching, or teaching and are interested in volunteering for the Mason Swim Academy, please contact our Site Supervisors at 513.229.8555.

Infant Water SafetyLeisure PoolThe goal of this private, one-on-one lesson is to promote a positive response to the water environment and teach your 6- to 24-month old baby to float on his or her back and get a breath of air. The emphasis is on water adaptation and training the child to react in a constructive manner should they find themselves in water accidentally. Class is conducted with child and coach.

PLEASE NoTE: Completion of this class does not mean your child is water-safe. Adult supervision is still required whenever you child is around water. Completing this class may, however, provide you with some extra moments should an accident occur.

Young Rembrandts® Drawing ClassesActivity Room BDrawing is the fundamental skill of the visual arts and can give children an academic advantage in the classroom. Young Rembrandts focuses on teaching children to draw using demonstration and a structured step-by-step process. This method of directed drawing gives young students instruction on how to draw increasingly complex images at a crucial time in their development. Through the process of weekly instruction, students are exposed to a wide variety of subject matter, artistic concepts, art history, and mastery of their materials.

Pre-School DrawingYoung Rembrandts® pre-school program is designed with the youngest learners in mind. Subjects that youngsters are familiar with, such as animals and toys, are used along with their favorite learning tools—pictures, stories, touching, and doing—to enhance social and conflict resolution skills while improving listening, fine motor skills, and staying on task. You’ll be amazed at what they create!

PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT

Musikgarten Early Childhood Music ClassesMeeting RoomWhen music and movement are a natural, joyous part of childhood, children benefit greatly in many areas of life. Language development, self-expression, memory skills, concentration, social interaction, fine motor skills, listening, problem solving, teamwork, goal setting, and coordination are all impacted by early music and movement education. What’s more, as a child learns to play music, other areas of development—creativity, family bonding, self-esteem, confidence, and emotional development—are also positively impacted.

Nimble & QuickShare your favorite nursery rhymes—the beloved poems and chants handed down from generation to generation! Nursery rhymes are a lasting art form and offer children the wisdom of the ages as well as communication, movement, interaction, repetition, and cultural customs, all experienced in a playful way.

Each new participant of this program must purchase the additional supply kit with a Parent Book, CD, and 1 bean bag.

Defining Your Residency Status

Many people with a Mason mailing address do not live within the city limits. Parts of Deerfield Township have a Mason mailing address and may also be in the Mason School District, but they are outside the city limits. The earnings taxes paid by Mason residents help pay for many benefits that are not available to non-residents. This is why Mason residents pay less for programs and events offered by Mason Community Center than non-residents.

Have you ever followed someone’s suggestion and achieved

results beyond your expectations? Here’s a story of how one man

improved his health by using the Mason Community Center

to act on a friendly suggestion. While everyone’s situation is

different, one thing is for sure—Mason Community Center can

serve many needs. Our post-rehab program, personal trainer

sessions, drop-in group exercise classes (dozens every week!),

water programs, fitness center, weight loss programs, and more

can help you achieve your goals. Here’s how the center changed

Dave Anderson’s life.I joined the Mason Fitness Center in May of 2003 and have

been an active member ever since. I was mainly using the

weight machines and the pool in the mornings before I went

to work. I retired in 2007 and have been coming in the mid-

mornings almost every day during the week. At the end of

2009 I had my back operated on for a herniated disc and used

the Mason Fitness Center for most of my physical therapy

using the weight machines and swimming every day. In 2010

someone suggested that I try a Yoga class for my back. I had

a long discussion with Beth Tysl and in June I started with

Gentle Yoga one day a week. In 2011 I started doing 2 Yoga classes a week and then 3

days. The pain in my back has disappeared along with the

pains and numbness in my legs. I now can take hour long

walks with no problems and I usually walk to the Fitness

Center (20 minutes each way) in the mornings. This has been

the best thing for my recovery. I am now a huge proponent of Yoga and encourage everyone to try it. This year I was doing 4 classes a week and in April the Monday class was changed to a “Cycle/Yoga” class which is different. Lori Hart gave me a

challenge to try this. I like the cardio aspect of the class and

the Yoga stretches afterwards. In June of this year I started

to also attend the Wednesday “Cycle/Yoga” class (now called

“Cycle/Stretch”). Since June I have noticed that my weight has

started to fall. When my back was operated on I weighed as much as 215

and at the beginning of June 2012 I was still 212. The end of

September I weighed 200 and holding. If you would have told

me that at age 69 I would start a cycling class and then lose

12 pounds I wouldn’t have believed it. I haven’t been below

200 since the 1980’s. I am now doing Cycle/Stretch (Mon,

Wed, Fri) and Yoga (Tue, Thu). I would like to thank Beth and Lori as you have changed my

life and also to thank Pooja, Kim and now Heather for keeping

me challenged, motivated and not becoming just another

“Old Geezer.”

GOLF

Winter Weather PlayA tip from Andy Horn, Golf Pro at the Golf Center at Kings Island

This is a great time of year to play golf. In the off season, I will dress in layers and will play with winter gloves on. I also take a few clubs out of my bag to make it lighter when walking. With more clothes on during winter golf, I shorten my swing and take an extra club on most shots. You will hit the ball more solid and straighter.

On a windy day, play the ball back in your stance and you will have a lower ball flight with more spin. Your hands at impact will be in front of the ball and that will also help keep the ball lower. Another tip in the wintertime is to widen your stance. This will help your balance in the windy season.

Dress warmly and keep swinging all winter long!

As always, if you have any problems or questions, please call me in the golf shop!

Breaking the Cycle of Holiday Weight GainBy Tiffany Wentzel Fitness Program Coordinator

The holiday festivities are upon us. They seem to bring with them each year the tendency to eat more and exercise less, leading to the inevitable holiday weight gain. But it doesn’t have to be that way. This year, don’t allow yourself to say, “I don’t have time.” This is one of the biggest excuses for not exercising and it’s not true. We all find time to do the things we enjoy. It’s time to put your health at the top of your priority list. If you don’t have a block of 30 minutes or more to exercise, break it up. Here’s how:

Indoor activities during the winter season:• Do a short workout tape.• Walk your stairs for 10 minutes.• Use your lunch break to walk around or walk the stairs.• When watching TV, use commercial time to do squats,

lunges, crunches, etc.

Eating during the holidays:• Use smaller plates at meals. This is an easy way to cut

down portions while still seeing a full plate. • Cut food into smaller pieces. This helps your brain think

you have eaten more.• Put the food away after you eat to avoid grazing and

overeating.• Plan activities after meals to avoid sitting around and

eating out of boredom.• Set a house rule that the kitchen is “closed” at a certain

time at night to avoid late night snacking. Your last meal should be at least 2 hours before bedtime.

• Drink plenty of water. We tend to not feel as thirsty in the winter, but our body still needs water just as much as during warmer months.

Give yourself some incentive:• Start the new year right by joining the second annual

Empowered to Lose BIG Challenge here at Mason Community Center. It’s going to be bigger and better than last year—so don’t miss out on the new options to make 2013 your healthiest yet!

• Check out Mason Community Center’s Pinterest page to find great workout tips and motivation.

• Set a goal to be more active in 2013. You don’t have to run a marathon or drop 30 pounds, just get more involved in the community and make healthier choices.

• Don’t wait! Why not start today? You’ll be happy you did.


GYMNASTICS

GymnasticsMultipurpose RoomThe City of Mason is pleased to offer state-of-the-art facilities for gymnastics programs. This 8,200 square foot gymnastics area is complete with tumbling tracks, a table vault, and a Resi-Pit-lined gymnastics pit.

Drop by The Edge to see the new Teen Hangout Corner, play some air hockey, and see the other changes that have come to The Edge.

To create more fun and more challenges, the climbing wall at The Edge has been rerouted. All the handholds were first removed and cleaned. Then new routes were created as they were reinstalled. It’s a whole new wall of climbing excitement!

We are excited to announce the installation of an air hockey table. We expect to see members of all ages testing their skill on this arcade favorite.

There’s also a new Teen Hangout Corner. With a TV, couches, and chairs with desk surfaces, teens are invited to relax after school, work on

homework, or watch TV.The Edge is at the center of the Center. Access to The Edge is free to Premier

pass holders. Basic pass holders can enjoy The Edge for $7 for the day, or upgrade to a Premier pass for access anytime. The Edge is included in day passes. Step up to The Edge!

The Importance of Nutrition in an Athlete’s DietA Tip from Buckeye Running Company

To some, the idea of eating before, during, or after a run can be hard to imagine. For others, it’s learning to cut back in quantities that becomes the struggle. A large part of running, especially long distances, is the way that you fuel your body. There are many options these days, but the only true way to determine what works best for you is to try them out and to learn from your experience.

Before: While water is extremely important, it is wise to also consume some form of electrolyte. Gatorade and PowerAde are two well-known liquid refueling agents. They work great for most people, but they aren’t the only product available. GU is most famous for their multi-flavored, palm-sized packets of, well, electrolyte goo. They also offer powdered electrolyte mixes that can be added to your water to provide you with the carbohydrates and sodium that your body will lose as you run. Another popular brand of electrolyte beverage is Nuun. This line does what the others do, but with a more “carbonated” taste.

Keep it simple. Before your run, eat simple (white) carbohydrates as opposed to complex (wheat and grain) carbs. Simple carbs are more easily digested by the body. Add in a little protein (peanut butter, almonds, or egg white) and are you ready for an optimal work out.

during: This is by far the trickiest area to discuss. Nutritional supplements during your workout are a game of trial and error. Currently on the market you can find gel cubes, crispy wafers, liquid filled gels, and the gel packets like GU. Most offer caffeine options. Learning what your body needs and beating it to the point of crash is the key to using these products. The brands offering the supplements will say to take some form of nutrition every 45 to 60 minutes of activity. I prefer to work off mileage. Every 4 to 6 miles, I will consume something other than just water. I have learned through trial and error that waiting until the 7-mile mark is too late and I spend the next few miles trying to recover instead of keeping my body on track. It may be different for you. It is a learning process, but one well worth it!

After: Again, water is vital, but I would also stress the importance of refueling your body with the electrolytes it has lost. Post-workout needs are similar to pre-workout in terms of food, but you have a wider palette available to you. Your body no longer needs to digest as quickly as during a workout. You can consume complex carbohydrates to enhance your metabolism and keep it moving. Protein should be one of, if not the first thing that goes in your mouth, but be leery of protein bars. Many are packed with sugar and unnecessary fats that can completely negate the time and effort you just put in. Instead, opt for a runner’s favorite: chocolate milk. That’s right, good old chocolate milk. Low-fat varieties offer proteins and sugars, without the fat of some protein bars.

Everything discussed above is offered at Buckeye Running Company. Visit our satellite store at Mason Community Center’s Symbiosis store.
