Barre-Fit

Get lean, toned and strong with Barre-Fit. We teach a combination of ballet, core, stretching and body weight exercises to strengthen and stretch your entire body, focusing on arms, abs, inner and outer thighs and glutes. Instead of a ballet barre or handrail, we use chair backs, tables or countertops to do our barre work. No equipment is necessary; just bring a mat or a thick towel to support floor work. If you have 1-5 lb. hand weights or good substitutes, bring them along.

Barre-Pilates Fusion

Get ready to laser-focus on four large body muscle groups: legs, glutes, core, and shoulders. Fusing Barre, Yoga, and standard Pilates, you will use minimal movements to build strength without straining your joints. This class takes a high-energy approach, so it will be both invigorating and a bit heart-pumping! Enjoy a fun and challenging experience with plenty of modifications and options to accommodate all fitness levels. All you need is a chair and a comfortable surface as there will be a short floor sequence for core work (yoga mat, carpeted floor, blanket, padding, etc.).  First-timers and those new to fitness are encouraged to take Pilates Fusion – we will all get stronger together!

Mat Pilates

Time to “go deep” into core. This class focuses on developing strength, flexibility, balance and stamina. Using breath-synchronized movement, we teach exercises that align the spine while engaging the deepest muscles of the core, as well as arms and lower body.  Mat Pilates is unique, demanding, and highly effective.  We teach at multiple levels from beginner to advanced so you can choose a range of motion that supports the deliberate movements unique to this practice. This class is for everyone, so come join folks who are crazy about core!

It combines natural body weight exercises—squats, twisting/rotating, core work, pushups, lunges, burpees, planks, and wall sits —with cross-training and cardio-based movements from various sports and traditional fitness classes.  No special equipment or large space is necessary, but if you have a stability ball, medicine ball, mat, kettle bell, exercise band and/or a set of hand weights close by, feel free to bring them along.  New to exercise or it’s been awhile? No worries, we will provide plenty of options for every exerciser. Simple-Strong TBC is a wonderful way for everyone to get fit and stay fit!

Upper Body Blast

Only have 30 minutes? That’s plenty of time to work your upper body.  This class focuses on strength exercises targeting chest, shoulders, upper back and arms.  Some exercises can be done with body weight, while others will require more resistance–a hand weight, band or any objects that can serve as safe substitutes. We encourage creativity, so if you find good options, please share them in the chat room. Think jugs of water or a duffle bag filled with books…get creative and get stronger, WorkFitters!

Yoga & Early Bird Yoga

In this class, we learn and practice foundational yoga to align, strengthen and promote flexibility. We begin by focusing on breath to quiet our minds and then progress to foundational movements to get our circulation going. Next, we transition through full-body range of motion with a variety of postures that may include standing, sitting, twists, backbends, forward folds, and hip openers. Our work is effective in building strength and balance, relaxation and rejuvenation. We finish with a restorative savasana with calming breath work. No experience and or special props necessary. Come join us for much needed movement that brings us back to our center.

Yoga & Meditation

Join us for this unique class designed to reboot your body, mind & soul. Plan for 20-25 minutes of mindful movement and breathing followed by an extended period of savasana. During the first part of class, we will focus on foundational movements to get our circulation going and then transition through full-body range of motion with a variety of postures that may include standing, sitting, twists, backbends, forward folds, and hip openers.  For our final relaxation phase, we will experience the potent healing magic of Yoga Nidra or ‘yogic sleep’ – a systematic form of guided meditation. You just need to be comfortable–create your own cozy nest! Feel free to sit quietly in your chair or use your bed (lying in the reverse direction from the way you sleep) or a couch, or the floor. If you opt for the floor, make sure you have enough support (a mat or a blanket or pillows). This class is just what we need to rejuvenate!

Yoga Stretch

It’s time to focus on flexibility while cultivating a deep and steady breathing rhythm.  This class helps us stretch and relax our body while calming the mind.  We move with a nice, gentle pace through a full-body range of motion with a variety of postures that may include laying down, standing, sitting, twists, gentle backbends, forward folds, and hip openers. We love beginners and offer options and modifications for every pose. Simply breathe and move in a way that feels good!

Seated Yoga

Seated Yoga is a gentle practice in which postures are performed while seated and/or with the aid of a chair. Seated Yoga is a great option for those with physical disabilities, aging populations, or people with difficulty balancing. It is also a great form of yoga for beginners or anyone who wants to focus on a gentle practice. Just like other yoga practices, Seated Yoga increases flexibility, strength and body awareness.

Zumba

Get ready to move your body, get your heart pumping and dance! A program inspired by beats of salsa, flamenco and merengue music, Zumba fuses hypnotic rhythms with easy-to-follow moves for an exhilarating and fun class that feels more like a party than a workout.  But don’t be fooled – Zumba is a challenging, interval-based fitness class. It moves between high and low intensity dance routines designed to boost cardio endurance as well as strengthen core and improve flexibility. No equipment or rhythm required, just join and have a great time!
