Caddo Common Park, the vibrant 1+ acre creative greenspace located at the heart of Shreveport Common (869 Texas Avenue), is thrilled to announce the launch of a weekly health and wellness event that will take place every Saturday. This exciting initiative aims to inspire a healthy lifestyle and foster community engagement in the beautiful new public space in Downtown Shreveport.
Caddo Common Park will host three invigorating exercise classes led by professional trainers. The classes, programmed by the renowned fitness expert Juanita Green of The Cardio Spot, are designed to cater to participants of all fitness levels. The event schedule begins at 8am and runs until 11:30am, offering attendees a variety of physical activities to choose from.
The morning kicks off with a dynamic Rebound Trampoline class, providing an energetic and fun-filled workout that promotes cardiovascular health and overall fitness. Participants will then have the opportunity to engage in a series of diverse exercise sessions, which could include activities such as Zumba, Tai Chi, endurance works, and more. The event culminates with a soothing Yoga class, allowing participants to unwind, stretch, and find balance.
Caddo Common Park's picturesque setting, nestled within the revitalized Shreveport Common area, serves as the ideal backdrop for this health-focused initiative. The park's location and design were carefully crafted through a nationally-awarded creative placemaking community vision plan process, aimed at rejuvenating a historic yet neglected area. Through a dedicated public-private effort, the once-desolate nine-block space, characterized by broken concrete slabs and razor wire, has been transformed into a lively urban greenspace. Today, Caddo Common Park boasts tree-lined walking trails, an iconic outdoor Performance Pavilion, an Art Bosque Food Truck Court adorned with 20-foot-tall solar and LED lit Artistrees, and a Bioswale.
The weekly health and wellness event at Caddo Common Park promises to be a transformative experience for participants, fostering a sense of community and inspiring individuals to embrace a healthier lifestyle. Whether you're a fitness enthusiast or a beginner looking to kickstart your wellness journey, this event offers something for everyone.
