Barre
Our signature Barre class adds strength training and mobility to the traditional Barre technique which sculpts long lean muscles and improves flexibility. Expect a low-impact, high intensity workout that is safe and challenging for all levels. Socks are required for class

Cardio
This 45-minute class combines cardio, core work, and HIIT intervals to build cardiovascular endurance. A combination of light and heavy weights, core balls, gliders, and resistance bands will be used in this sweat-driven workout. Options will be given to customize this class to challenge you at your choice of level. Sneakers, bare feet, or socks can be worn for class.
Bounce
This 45 minute class is a fun way of getting high intensity cardio in a low impact format, while improving balance, coordination and stability. Done on a mini trampoline, this class also will use light and heavy weights.
Sneakers, bare feet, or grippy socks are recommended.
You will not be permitted to enter class if you arrive more than 5 minutes past the start time.
