Deep Stretch and ABs

Deep stretch & ABs is an active stretching class that targets primary muscle groups which surround hips, hamstrings & back. Tight muscles can cause imbalance and pull the body out of alignment. This class begins with warm up movements to build heat and prepare muscles for a deep stretch on your yoga mat. We will hold poses longer, focusing inward and on breath which will give your body time to relax and open. The class will also incorporate exercises for your core, so that you can stretch and work on those abdominals all in 55 minutes!

Forte Fit (weights)

Our most demanding functional fitness training session, Forte Fit, is for those who have attended other fitness classes and therefor possess a basic understanding of proper technique and training principals who constantly strive for more and have a passion to try new things ad be challenged! This class will focus on "military athlete" training principals and utilize more technical equipment to include barbells, kettlebells, plyo boxes, heavy sandbags and more. Exceptional programming lead by our most knowledgeable and accredited certified personal trainers’ "coaches" will excite the mind and provide the ultimate challenge to the body! COME take the challenge! Modifications and teaching of proper technique and form will always be available in a supportive and non-intimidating environment! As always, let your coach know of any medical issues or injuries prior to class.

Glute Gains is a weight training class that targets the posterior chain (glutes, legs, hips, back) by using a variety of movements that will challenge you beyond just a basic squat. This class utilizes everything from barbells, dumbbells, and kettlebells, to resistance bands, and body weight exercises that are proven to activate, strengthen, and grow your glutes! All fitness levels are welcome!

G.R.O.W.N.D. 

An innovative fitness format that incorporates full body strength training from the ground only. All routines are set to upbeat Afro-Caribbean and Hip Hop beats. The purpose of every track is to focus on toning, tightening, and building lean muscle. In order to tone efficiently this format incorporates the use of dumbbells, plates, balls, resistance bands, bars and kettlebells. 

H.I.I.T.

H.I.I.T stands for High Intensity Interval Training. ALL fitness levels are preferred and welcome with modifications shown! Get your TOTAL BODY WORKOUT with STRENGTH and CARDIO with this burner! It’s one of our most popular classes for a reason. Adding this type of workout into your routine can result in distinct differences in your other workouts such as more stamina and endurance. Studies have shown that HIIT training helps you burn more calories all day, long after your workout is complete and even at rest!

Zumba® Fitness

Perfect for everybody and every body! Each Zumba® class is designed to bring people together to sweat it on in a dance-fitness P-A-R-T-Y like atmosphere! How It Works: We take the "work" out of workout, by mixing low-intensity and high-intensity moves for an interval-style, calorie-burning dance fitness party. Once the Latin, Top 40 and World Rhythms take over, you'll see why Zumba® Fitness classes are often called exercise in disguise. Super effective? Check. Super fun? Check and check. Benefits: A total workout, combining all elements of fitness – cardio, muscle conditioning, balance and flexibility, boosted energy and a serious dose of awesome each time you leave class.
