Each class is 60 minutes and led by qualified coaches. We always start together with a warm-up designed to activate the muscles being used in the workout.
The coach will brief the group on the workout, the movements, and the proper form. During the workout, the coach will be guiding and providing instruction.
At the end of class, we will cool down together to accelerate recovery and reduce potential injury. Sign up today!
