Tips for a Good Workout

  • Arrive on time! For the safety of all participants, late entry is not permitted into any group fitness classes.

  • Work at your own pace. Modifications are offered for varying fitness levels, so select the one that is challenging yet comfortable.

  • Try a variety of classes. Everyone has a favorite, but different classes address different aspects of fitness. Recruit a buddy if you need extra motivation.

  • Ask questions before and after class if you have concerns or want to know what the class will be like.

  • Try something twice. Sometimes learning the terminology and form at the first session can change your perception of a certain class.
