Class Descriptions
Body Bar Blast: This class is a muscle-toning class focused on body muscle strength. Designed using weighted bars, you will perform a variety of traditional weight training moves. Feel stronger with every session!
Yoga Stretch: Each class will open with brief meditation & pranayama, followed by gentle asana toward an accessible apex pose (such as vrkasana, natarajasana, warrior 2) that will energetically benefit faculty and staff, providing them with focus and prana to get through the rest of their day. Class will close in a 5 minute restful savasana with guided visualizations to help achieve deep tissue relaxation.
Strength and Stability: Strength and Stability is the perfect low-impact fitness class designed for all fitness levels! Our class focuses on gentle exercises that promote cardiovascular fitness, flexibility, balance, and overall well-being without the stress and strain of high-impact workouts. Whether you're new to fitness, recovering from an injury, or simply looking for a soothing way to stay active, this class is for you.
Muscle Pump: A great way to define, sculpt and build lean muscle. Focuses on intense isolation exercises with free weights and resistance, ending with abs. All-Levels.
