Through a combination of stretching, breathing exercises and yoga poses, you'll build strength, reduce tension and leave feeling refreshed, energized and ready to take on your day. All experience levels are welcome.
Bodypump
Challenges all of your major muscle groups with weighted squats, presses, lifts and curls. Get the results you have been looking for with cutting-edge BODYPUMP™ choreography, chart-topping music and your choice of weights.
