Who We Are

                      Group Fitness


 

Land Group Fitness

 

Les Mills Body Pump-BODYPUMP-TM

Bod-Pump is the original barbell class that strengthens your entire body.  This 60-minute workout challenges all your major muscle groups by using the best weight-room exercises like squats, presses, lifts and curls.   Participants need to bring a towel and water bottle.  Ages 14 and up.

 

Zumba-R

Zumba classes feature exotic rhythms set to high-energy Latin and International beats.  There's no other fitness class like a Zumba Fitness-Party.  It's easy to do, effective and totally exhilarating.   Ages 14 and up, 12-13 yr old when accompanied by an adult.

Zumba Gold-R

Zumba Gold targets the largest growing segment of the population: baby boomers.  It mirrors the Zumba formula, but the moves are modified and the pacing is set to suit the needs of the active older participant. Latin music, like salsa, merengue, cumbia, and reggaeton is the background for these exhilarating, easy-to-follow moves.  The invigorating, dance-fitness party-like atmosphere is friendly and most of all fun. Ages 14 and up, 12-13 yr old when accompanied by an adult.

Indoor Cycling

Cycling increases energy expenditure through the very vigorous cardiovascular workout it provides.  It is more intense than stationary cycling due to the constant movements in and out of the saddle.  The ability to add resistance increases the intensity and strengthens the lower body.  Ages 14 and up, 12-13 yr old when accompanied by an adult.

Group Training

Are you looking for an intense workout without the hassle of coming up with the right workout routine?  Group training is a great way to boost your workout intensity and keep you accountable while remaining under the watchful eye of a certified personal trainer!  Ages 14 and up.

Pilates

Strengthen muscles, increase flexibility and improve your inner self through this low impact technical teaching.  Wear comfortable clothing and bring your mat if you have one. Mates will be provided as needed.  Ages 14 and up.

Yoga

is a physical, mental, and spiritual discipline, originating in ancient India, whose goal is the attainment of a state of perfect spiritual insight and tranquility.  Ages 14 and up.

Break Dancing

This class is designed for the beginner who wants to learn to break dance but is not sure how to begin. We start off slow with basic drills and exercises, then we slowly ease you into basic footwork on the ground, growing into the various aspects of breaking.  The #1 goal in all of our classes is to HAVE FUN!  This class is a loose and fun environment where you can be yourself while experimenting with body movement.

Hip-Hop Dancing

Kids will have a blast learning choreographed rhythmic steps so to some of the hottest hip-hop tracks and burst out crazy funky routines.  This is a real hip-hop class, not some other type of class masquerading as such.  The instructor, Aaron Helzer, has performed for some large venues and is a well sought after choreographer and performer.

 

 

 

 

 

H2o Group Fitness

Ai Chi

Ai Chi has some clear benefits.  Aquatic exercise is often recommended for people with limited mobility, because of the buoyancy; people can move more easily and comfortably in the wateer with stiff joints and injuries than they can on dry land.  The poses are similar to those used in yoga and Tai Chi, and when performed on a regular basis, they certainly contribute to muscle tone.  Mental health can also be Definitions to our fitness classes.

Aqua Zumba

Known as the Zumba "pool-party", Aqua Zumba gives new meaning to the idea of an invigorating workout.  Integrating Zumba formula and philosophy with traditional aqua fitness disciplines, Aqua Zumba blends it all together into a safe, challenging, water-based workout that's cardio-conditioning, body-toning, and most of all total exhilaration.
