Tired of feeling like a hamster on a wheel? Then Zumba, aerobics and spin are perfect classes for you! These group fitness classes combine great music and fast-paced exercises to burn up to 600 calories in one hour. Plus, up-beat instructors keep you motivated and safe by demonstrating proper technique and form.
Looking for a way to detox and de-stress? Yoga and kickboxing may be your solution. Yoga classes are great for calming the mind by combining breathing and meditation while also focusing on balance, strength training and flexibility. Kickboxing and boot camp courses are great for those of you with too much energy to sit quietly on the yoga mat and will help reduce pent up frustrations.
If you’re not sure about a class, talk to those who attend the class. Learn more about the class’ intensity and instructor. And if all else fails, pop in and simply give it a try! As you frequent classes, you will see the same eager faces motivating and pushing each other to reach goals. Groups can be the perfect way to combine fun, friends and fitness.
