Fitness in the Park

Fitness in the Park provides free group exercise sessions in local city parks and gives San Antonians an opportunity to try something new or to jump start an old program. Fitness in the Park is completely free and open to everyone in the community. The program runs for about 8 weeks from March 24 - May 12, 2012. A new schedule will be posted just prior to the first week of classes. Interested instructors or anyone who has any questions on fitness in the park, please contact Michael Baldwin at Michael.Baldwin@sanantonio.gov or call 210-207-3197.
