Looking to push yourself to the max? Try Fusion fit, a workout that aims to hit all the major muscle groups in one single session! A typical class will include exercises for back, legs, chest, shoulders, arms, and core. Get ready to squat, jump, hold planks and wall sits, and stretch it all out at the end! Incorporating weights into the exercises will be cued, but not necessary to perform the exercise. Options to modify will be offered throughout each class.

We take the "work" out of workout, by mixing low-intensity and high-intensity moves for an interval-style, calorie-burning dance fitness party. Once the Latin and World rhythms take over, you'll see why Zumba Fitness classes are often called exercise in disguise. Super effective? Check. Super fun? Check and check. A total workout, combining all elements of fitness – cardio, muscle conditioning, balance and flexibility, boosted energy, and a serious dose of awesome each time you leave class.
