Group Exercise Class Descriptions
Ab Blast
Ab Blast is an intensive workout focused on the mid-section of the body. Short and sharp at only 30 minutes, this class fits nicely into lunch breaks and is perfect for those short on time. A mixture of abdominal exercises and core stability work will tone and shape the abdomen and give increased core control.
Aqua Jog
Low impact activity. Exercise in water is great for recovery due to the natural massage on the muscles, the low impact helps protect joints, and the water resistance helps tone, shape and increase muscular endurance.
