ExperienceTO: Mimico Historical Tour
2026-09-19 08:00 - 17:00 (America/Toronto) | Toronto Public Library – Mimico Centennial Branch, 47 Station Road, Toronto, M8V 2R1
Join us for the free-to-attend Mimico Historical Tour.
About Mimico: “Mimico is a former railway and farming town that eventually turned into a Toronto neighbourhood. If you travel south-west of downtown Toronto along the lake, you will find Mimico sitting right on the edge of Etobicoke. It’s known as the oldest of the former Lakeshore Municipalities. According to the Etobicoke Historical Society, Mimico began developing thanks to native-born Canadian John William Gamble and the Parish of Christ Church. In 1855, the railway line was built going right through Mimico. The creation of the railway opened Mimico up to new residents, who realized they no longer needed to live close to their work. The neighbourhood saw an influx of working men moving into homes near the railway. In 1858, Mimico celebrated the establishment of a post office. In 1905, Mimico became a police village, meaning it had a degree of independence while remaining a part of the township. A huge change came to Mimico in 1906 with the Grand Trunk Railway opened its Mimico Yards. In 1917, Mimico became an independent municipality and remained that way until it became a part of the borough of Etobicoke in 1967, and was then amalgamated into the city of Toronto in 1998.” (BlogTO)

Core strength is the ability of the muscles in your trunk—including your abdomen, back, and pelvis—to stabilize your spine and pelvis, which is crucial for balance and good posture. They support your spine and can help protect you from injuries such as those that lead to back pain.
Core exercises train the muscles of your torso to work in in coordination with the breath and in overall harmony. This type of training leads to better balance and steadiness. Whether you are lifting, bending, or seated to watch your favorite show, your core muscles enable you to perform everyday activities with greater ease.
This class format is accessible to all, whether you wish to work while seated or standing. We will utilize breath patterns and range of movement exercises to strengthen and mobilize the entire core body.
Breath and Core Strength will leave you feeling solid and ready to take on your day with greater core stability.

Modified plyometrics are low-impact exercises that activate the stretch-shortening cycle in our muscles to increase strength and performance. Modified plyometrics can enhance functional fitness, increase ease of daily activities and help improve balance, coordination, and bone density, for sustaining an independent lifestyle.
The dynamic strength section of this class will focus on muscular endurance through eccentric (elongated) and concentric (contracted) muscle conditioning.
