1:27 pm
the work outs. we dot work outs. see kids that walk by. stop to see what is going on and by example they are seeing members working out. seeing older folks working out that is huge, right? and in a time many of us are often indoors having an out door fitness group with music promotes being outside and enjoying the fresh air. there may be concerns about
1:28 pm
noise however. the music that has already been played since the beginning of the sessions in that space and for the past few months without has not had significant issues. from my experience music has not been a nuisance. i have seen people stop and look in what that activity is about.
1:29 pm
i think music is important for work outs as others said you don't need a lot you need some. bridges people in. and by geting work out i think i
