Spinning: An endurance-building ride through hill and flat terrain,with an emphasis on the climb. Increase your strength and stamina and FEEL the POWER.
Body Sculpting: A strength training full body workout that combines flexibility and cardiovascular conditioning using just dumbbells. It is designed to shape and tone the body without building muscular size or bulk. Sculpting is highly recommended to those enrolled in a weight loss program because it helps retain lean muscle tissue while boosting metabolism and preventing osteoporosis. Any fitness level can enroll.
Yoga: No previous experience in yoga or related disciplines is required for you to begin to experience undeniable benefits almost immediately. These benefits include peace of mind, deeper sense of security and optimism, heightened sense of self, improved concentration, mental and emotional control, expanded awareness and sensitivity, and in general, a revitalized and balanced mind, body and spirit.
