  • Functional Strength

    Functional Strength focuses on controlled, purposeful movement with a strength-first approach. Build power, protect joints, and improve daily performance with exercises that mimic real-life actions. This group fitness class also emphasizes weight-bearing exercises that can help strengthen bones and combat bone density loss. It’s strength training made smarter.

  • Upper Body / Lower Body
