Fitness

This is a group fitness class tailored to a slightly older demographic than the typical college age. It gives this population the opportunity to build community support and work toward achieving fitness goals together. Objectives are to improve overall health, increase confidence, learn proper movement mechanics and enjoy this fun and motivating environment.

This class infuses the breath into foundational shapes of Pilates to strengthen the core and sharpen the mind. Work through slow and controlled movements of the arms and legs
that challenge the stability of the abdominals to improve posture and overall muscle tone.

Interested in lifting weights but unsure of how to get started? This class will introduce you to basic lifting principles like foundational exercises, basic anatomy, and programming that will generate strength gains if done consistently. It will be organized into a progressive lesson format, where participants will sign up for a 4-week series that will meet once per week to offer education and technical instruction. Between each class meeting, participants will be expected to lift on their own to practice the movements learned that week. Each week will introduce different exercises (upper body, lower body, core, and circuit training) so that by the end, participants will have four workouts they can use going forward to improve their overall strength depending on what goals they have.

This class is delivered on floating mats in the deep end of the pool! Make a splash in your fitness routine by completing strength and conditioning movemements on the unstable and dynamic surface of a Boga Board! Be prepared to work hard, get wet, and have fun!

This class blends sets of cycling (rolling hills, springs, Tabata sets, standing climbs, etc.) with strength sets using body weight (planks, push-ups, squats, lunges, etc.) and some equipment (dumbbells, medicine balls, etc.). It offers a nice combo of aerobic conditioning with some strength training to improve both strength and cardiovascular fitness.

Recommended for those who already have experience with foundational yoga poses, this class will strengthen your body and mind through a dynamic, higher-intensity Vinyasa practice. Attendees should expect to build stamina, generate internal heat, and explore creative and more complex movement flows - all grounded in traditional breath-to-movement synchronization of Vinyasa yoga.

If you are interested in yoga but are worried about not being flexible enough, this class is for you. Our poses will be simple while allowing you to progress in your practice to eventually try more challenging flows. Recommended for those new to yoga, this class will introduce beginner-friendly poses and movement combinations, along with an introduction to fundamental Vinyasa concepts such as breath-to-movement synchronization.
