Exercise performed in water strengthens and tones while helping protect muscles and joints. Water provides a medium of resistance to move against that is both supportive and challenging. This class occurs in semi-shallow water, from 3 ½ - 5 ft deep. Ask for floatation belts if you are uncomfortable treading water.
Note: patrons of water-based classes should be comfortable in water and will get wet!
Cycling is a great way to enjoy an exercise session with friends, increase your cardiorespiratory fitness level and burn calories at the same time. Come enjoy the ride!
This is a partner-based social dance class that teaches the fundamentals of Lindy Hop, a historical jass swing dance from the 1930's. Attending with a partner is not required-the practice of rotating partners will be implemented to give everyone the chance to practice the skills of leading and following.
This is a Hatha-Vinyasa style yoga class. Incorporating breath control and meditation, this class will gradually awaken the body and mind, finding movement to a slightly slower-paced vinyasa flow. This well-balanced practice can help regulate the nervous system, helping you feel revitalized and ready for your day. Many modifications and variations to poses will be offered, welcoming new and long-time practitioners of yoga alike.
Yin is a meditative, grounding, and cooling practice. Poses are passively held for longer (anywhere from 3-6 minutes), creating more physical and energetic space by working into the deep, connective tissues and joints in the body. This practice can help increase flexibility and circulation, emotional awareness and regulation, and reduce stress and anxiety. Yin yoga contrasts and compliments other forms of yoga such as Vinyasa yoga.
