Barre

This class uses a combination of postures inspired by ballet and other disciplines like yoga and Pilates. The barre is used as a prop to balance while doing exercises that focus on isometric strength training (holding your body still while you contract a specific set of muscles) combined with high reps of small range-of-motion movements. This class looks to develop long, lean muscles, enhance flexibility, and improve balance.

Cross Training Fitness

Taught by a CF Level 1 Trainer, a high intensity strength and conditioning class made up of functional movements to help increase participants physical fitness. Each routine is scaled to accommodate all fitness levels. Every session participants will motivate one another and work together to reach their goals.

HIIT

High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) has become a popular workout trend. Due to our busy schedules at times it can be difficult to carve out a part of our day to exercise…right? Wrong! Now you can attend HIIT class designed for all levels of physical fitness and is short and to the point. This type of training gets and keeps your heart rate up and burns more fat in less time! 

spin

Spin is a fitness class that is performed on stationary bikes to music. Our instructors will guide you through an entire cycle adventure that will challenge the fittest participants, but is very modifiable for those that are just starting their fitness journey. Classes will climb, jump, sprint and have a nice flat ride through the countryside. All of our instructors are both very passionate about fitness and will try to motivate you to work at your peak performance, all the while cueing form and intensity. You'll have a great ride time after time and have tons of fun!

Yoga with Angie

As the foundation to all else in yoga asanas, core strength makes not just poses but daily life feel easier. This practice focuses on the synchronization of breath & the continuous flow of movement. Vinyasa is a strong practice that builds heat, endurance, flexibility, strength and mental focus. You’ll find you’ll stand taller, feel stronger, and exude confidence.  The class is fun and challenging, but we encourage you to take a pace that suits your body’s needs.

Yoga with Leigh

Core strength yoga is a program designed to provide a holistic approach to exercise. Yoga poses build strength, enhance flexibility, and relieve stress and tension working inwards while "working out." The yoga sequences are mindfully flowing, dynamic, creative, and challenging. Be prepared to feel empowered, energized, and balanced with a constant focus on core connection on all levels. This can be a total body/mind transformative experience!

Yoga with Sean

This afternoon class focuses on fine-tuning alignment and developing a keener awareness of both the body and the breath.  Participants will refine their practice and may find greater ease both on and off the mat.
