Free workout classes: LiveWell Newport hosts exercise at Buena Vista Park Tuesdays, Saturdays


In support of myNKY’s vision to promote a culture of good health in Northern Kentucky, LiveWell Newport and the YMCA have partnered with local fitness organizations to provide free exercise classes twice weekly until September 16.

Classes will be held on Tuesdays from 6-7 p.m. and Saturdays from 10-11 a.m. at Buena Vista Park (W 12 th St. Newport).

These family-friendly classes will be guided by Yoga Bar, NewCov Crossfit, Train with Pauir, Change Yoga and the Campbell County YMCA.

Each class offers participants the opportunity to learn about a different type of exercise, from yoga to CrossFit. All fitness levels are welcome, and participants just need to bring water and a mat/towel (limited supply also available at site).

LiveWell Newport, a coalition of diverse community stakeholders, shares a common commitment to health and wellness in Newport. The coalition is focused on programs that make the healthy choice the easy choice in Northern Kentucky. Past and current projects include park cleanups, a community health fair, walking trail design and nutrition education at local schools.

Barbie Barnes, St. Elizabeth Healthcare associate and LiveWell Newport co-chair, shares her excitement for this program: “LiveWell NKY’s momentum is clearly evident in Newport, as we launch this opportunity for residents to get moving in one of our beautiful Newport parks. We are grateful to our partners for their enthusiastic support and commitment to a healthier community.”
