PILATES
Pilates is an innovative and safe system of mind-body exercise using a floor mat or a variety of equipment. It evolved from the principles of Joseph Pilates and can dramatically transform the way your body looks, feels and performs. Pilates builds strength without excess bulk, and tones the body. It is a safe, sensible exercise system that will help you look and feel your very best. It teaches body awareness, good posture and easy, graceful movement. Pilates also improves flexibility, agility and economy of motion. It can even help alleviate back pain. Pilates is for every BODY, shape, size and age.
POWER PILATES
This high-intensity full body workout is non-stop Mat Pilates from start to finish. This class is 45 minutes and will have you sweating! We work on arm strength, core stability, toning the lower body, balance and so much more! Leave class feeling longer, stronger and taller.
BARRE FLOW
Barre classes engage muscles you wouldn't normally target—ones deep inside your body that squats, lunges and sit-ups don't reach. With high-reps and low-impact movements, barre challenges anyone looking to fine-tune their muscles—no ballet experience required.
REFORMER PILATES
Reformer Pilates is done using the Reformer Apparatus and is generally more dynamic & supportive than mat based Pilates as it adds resistance to the Pilates exercises via the use of the springs which form part of the machine.
The Pilates reformer is a traditional piece of Pilates equipment which looks like a bed with springs, a sliding carriage, ropes and pulleys. The origins of the Pilates reformer date back to the original Pilates studio in New York in the 1920’s and was designed by Joseph Pilates himself. Reformer Pilates can be used as a sport specific cross training tool. Reformer Pilates works on core stabilization which is vital to any athlete as well as muscle endurance, lactate tolerance, peripheral joint stability, muscle strength, balance, co-ordination and much more.
Reformer Pilates is great for rehab purposes too as it allows the client to exercise in a horizontal plane of motion and not be vertically loaded and weight bearing through their legs.
​
Reformer I - Fundamentals is a beginner class to introduce participants to the Pilates method and apparatus.
Reformer II is an all levels class for those who are new to Pilates as well as those who are well practiced in Pilates. Each class depends on who arrives and will be ever evolving. We are always building in this class!
​
Reformer III is an intermediate/advanced Reformer Pilates class that is challenging and dynamic! It is geared towards those who feel confident in their Pilates practice and want to expand their abilities.

YOGA

CALISTHENICS
The Art to Full Body Control
Calisthenics is a multitude of free body exercises performed with various degrees of rhythm and intensity, displaying control in all of the movements. Specialized movements will be the primary focus, movements such as push-ups of different variations, sit-ups of different variations, and inversions. Calisthenics has been known to promote relative strength, endurance, flexibility, coordination, and cardio health. This type of exercise has been around since the 19th century, close to the time Gymnastics had been popularized in the modern century but it has been used for centuries in many different regimes. From the Spartans to the Yogis, to the Monks and the Militaries. This type of fitness training and its many elements can be found in many movements universally.
Whether you have zero experience in Calisthenics or are very experienced, preparation of the basic necessary mobility in the shoulders and wrist as well as the strength in that mobility, are a key to your journey in Calisthenics and a key to your growth in it. That is a primary focus as it will help you develop a strong foundation for more advanced movements and exercises in Calisthenics.

We take the "work" out of workout, by mixing low-intensity and high-intensity moves for an interval-style, calorie-burning dance fitness party.

A total workout, combining all elements of fitness – cardio, muscle conditioning, balance and flexibility, boosted energy and a serious dose of awesome each time you leave class.
EMBODIED SOUND
Music is such an integral part of dance, but what is it about music that compels us to move? In this class, we explore our relationship with music and gain a deeper understanding of how it connects to our movement and life practices. Centered around improvisation and freeform movement, you are invited to find yourself through sound no matter your experience with dance or music. After all, no training is required to groove along to your favorite songs!
The first half of class consists of groove meditations, improv exercises, games, and most importantly, listening!
The second half is an open jam dedicated to allowing participants share music that moves them and dance with others in a cypher-style/open floor environment.
Come as you are, the only requirements are open ears and open hearts!
