Seniors Exercising Together (S.E.T):
Join our community of seniors and active older adults for a total-body workout!

We share intentional time in both of these classes for devotion and prayer. 

Boot Camp is a total body, heart pumping, aerobic and strength conditioning workout. This interval-based class combines full-body strength training with high intensity cardio bursts designed to tone your body and improve your endurance. Modifications for all fitness levels are provided. Cost is $40 for an 8-week session. Pre-registration is required. An intentional time of prayer & devotion is held at the end of each class session.

Holy Yoga is a perfect class for beginners or those with yoga experience! Breathing, yoga poses, and intentional thinking come together in this 60-minute class. Scripture verses are interwoven to create a beautiful exercise session for mind, body, and spirit. The cost is $20 and pre-registration is not required. Thursdays at 9:00am.

"Skills and Drills” is a co-ed basketball program for kids in Kindergarten through 5th Grade. This program works on the fundamentals of basketball including dribbling, shooting, and being a team player. This program occurs each fall at the Christian Life Center. 

We are not able to offer a session of "Skills & Drills" this fall, but hope to resume in the fall of 2022.

Each summer Ankeny First United Methodist Church offers a recreational soccer league for kids Pre-K (4 year olds+) – 5th grades. (PreK players must be four years old by the start of the season.)

Games are played 3v3 so that every member of the team gets equal playing time, more action, and equal touches on the ball. Kids soccer is open to everyone in the community, not just those who attend Ankeny First. Each session will include a brief devotion. Games are held at the Christian Life Center (710 NE 36th St).

Watch for future start dates here.
TIME: Games are played between 6:00pm and 9:00pm
COST: $20/player
