Your Health

Aerobic exercise is one of the best contributors to great health and well-being. It strengthens the heart muscle, increases lung capacity and helps you use oxygen more efficiently. It also increases your body’s level of HDLs (good cholesterol), a substance that carries out LDLs (bad cholesterol), which is heart-damaging, out of the blood stream. This then lowers overall cholesterol levels, lowers blood pressure, increases cardiopulmonary efficiency, improves circulation and reduces stress and anxiety. Last but not least, never forget that it helps control your weight, keeps you active and in great shape - all while having a blast!



 

 

What to expect

All classes include a gradual warm up to prepare your body for the work to follow. Depending on the class, this may be followed by cardiovascular training, strength training, balance, core or heart rate training zones. Before you walk out the studio, you will have a complete cool down and stretch to help the muscles return back to their resting length and help reduce any possible stress. We ask you to remain in class until the stretch is completely finished.



 

 

Tips for a successful class

Be on time! Warming up is essential to avoid injuries and it helps set the mood. Late arrivals can be disruptive for other class participants 

  • Always inform the instructor if you have any injuries or concerns before the class begins
  • Proper shoes are crucial to injury-free exercise, to provide sufficient cushioning and shock absorption. Trainers must be worn for all classes, excluding Pilates and yoga
  • Pace yourself and listen to your body; take it slowly in the beginning, particularly if you are new to fitness or have been away from exercising for a while
  • Drink water throughout class to avoid dehydration; nausea, dizziness, muscle fatigue and cramping are all symptoms of dehydration
  • Stay till the end! Don’t underestimate the importance of the cool-down period. The importance of stretching out and relaxing can never be underestimated after a workout
