Class Descriptions
Pound
A POUND® class is a high-energy, music-driven group fitness workout that combines cardio, Pilates, strength training, and drumming to create a full-body exercise experience. Participants use lightly weighted, neon-green drumsticks called “Ripstix®” to drum on the floor or in the air, allowing for a fun, stress-relieving workout that burns major calories per session.
Spin
A spin class, also known as indoor cycling, is a group fitness session conducted on stationary bikes. Participants pedal through a series of high-intensity intervals and endurance segments, all to the rhythm of energizing music, guided by an instructor.
HIIT
This class involves short bursts of intense exercise followed by brief periods of rest or lower-intensity activity. These high-intensity intervals could include activities like sprints, burpees, or jumping jacks. HIIT is known for its ability to torch calories and build strength.
Rip & Ride
This class involves a rhythmic based class using music that includes high energy songs with build ups to utilize high intensity intervals for endurance training and steady state climbs for strength training. Classes will include equipment intervals on and off the bike.

In this class, participants engage in bursts of intense, full-body exercises followed by mobility drills to improve flexibility and range of motion. This dual approach offers a well-rounded workout, enhancing cardiovascular fitness, strength, and overall body flexibility for a balanced and effective fitness routine.
Barre
This class is a low-impact but challenging fitness session that incorporates elements of ballet, Pilates, and yoga. Participants use a ballet barre for balance while performing isometric movements, small pulses, and stretches. This workout is designed to strengthen and tone muscles, improve flexibility, and enhance posture.

Shimmy & Shine
Time to move your hips with Shimmy & Shine! This is a confidence-boosting dance experience inspired by the powerful art of Raqs Sharqi (Belly Dance). This is NOT your average workout class. This is strength wrapped in grace. Feel powerful in your own skin and strengthen your core through dance to shake off stress. No dance background needed. Just bring your energy, and we’ll guide your every step, shimmy, and sparkle along the way.
