At the conclusion of the ceremony, the fitness center will be open with staff offering classes and demonstrations in salsa cardio, zumba, jazzercise, yoga, hip hop, pilates and kickboxing. Activities will be offered for the under fiveage group, older children, and adults.
Demonstrations will be offered in the weight room, which will also be open. The 22,000-square foot community center features a wellness component with fitness as its focus. It includes a fitness roomwith cardio equipment and weights, and an aerobics studio where dance classes such as zumba and jazzercise are offered.
Multipurpose rooms will be used to host workshops on health and wellness related topics. The center was part of a larger project in which the former Levi Strauss & Co. sewing plant was converted into Parks and Recreation Department administrative, recreation, maintenance, warehouse and park police training spaces.
The headquarters opened earlier this year. The request to name the community center for Enrique M. Barrera came from District 6 Councilwoman Delicia Herrera.
Barrera was appointed to City Council in 2000 and later won popular election for two terms, serving until 2005. He was an ordained deacon at San Fernando Cathedral. He also served on the Edgewood Independent School District Board of Trustees from 1978 to 1990. Barrera died of cancer at age 69 in 2006.
