Coreblast

This class when done consistently will give you the six pack you have always wanted! 25 straight minutes of core work using a variety of different exercises using upper, lower and oblique muscles ending with a stretch.

Bootcamp Basics

High Intensity Interval Training to burn calories, build strength and endurance. Start with calisthenics warm-ups and then blast through 3 rounds of exercises that range from cardio conditioning to toning with weights. Burn more, go harder and push into your next level of fitness.

WERQ

WERQ is the fiercely fun dance fitness class based on pop, rock, and hip hop music. The warm up previews the dance steps in class and the cool down combines yoga-inspired static stretching and balance poses. WERQ is taught by Certified Fitness Professionals, so the WERQout is safe and effective.

Yoga for Strength

The “power” in Power yoga isn’t about powering through the poses, but instead, finding your own power within. We will practice traditional postures, focus on alignment, and link them together using your breath. When challenged physically, the mind can begin to clear, and as the breath becomes steady and deeper, you’ll feel your own energy flow stronger, allowing your spirit to shine. Detoxify the body and purify the mind in this powerful class and leave feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Not recommended for brand new students. All-levels to Intermediate welcome.

Peaceful Minds

Our guided or group meditation classes hold a space for individuals to explore their inner world while sitting in a supportive community. Together we will sit and find guidance from the help of a teacher, but as your journey progresses, you’ll find a greater sensitivity to Self and that individual inner voice begins to speak. Meditation brings connection within you and unity in your outer world.

Sunset Flow

Gentle yoga postures, heavily propped, are offered in this class. The postures are held for some minutes and incorporate props such as pillows, blankets, cushions, straps, chairs and the wall to help you stay in the pose comfortably for a full restoration. Expect breath awareness, deep openings and guided visualizations that will bring you to full equilibrium.

This class is recommended for all levels and is a particularly good class for those with stress or anxiety, those in transition, or for those who just need a break from moving too quickly. This is also a great class for students who are recovering from injuries. Please let your teacher know if you have injuries so that the teacher can adapt the practice to your needs.

Family Yoga

Family Yoga is AMAZING for everyone! Children and parents can be so busy, so our family yoga class provides a place to spend joyful, quality time together. Children, parents, grandparents and caregivers get to enjoy practicing yoga together and strengthen their bonds while supporting each other and having fun!
