Here's What's Happening in September...
September 4th: HIIT Is Back!
Starting September 4th, join Tiffany on Wednesdays at 12pm for High-Intensity Interval Training. HIIT is a complete workout that combines both aerobic and strength training with repeated high intensity efforts mixed in with recovery periods. This class will replace Sophia's Pilates HIIT class during her leave of absence until the New Year.
September 4th: Cardio Sculpt
Also starting September 4th, join Laam on Wednesdays at 5:30pm for Cardio Sculpt, a 45-minute class that is sure to get your heart pumping. Cardio Sculpt is a fun, fast-paced fitness class that combines cardio and muscle sculpting exercises with the use of dumbbells and/or other fitness equipment. This class will replace Zumba on the group fitness calendar for the time being.
September 5th: Yoga with Isha
Starting September 5th, we'll be welcoming Isha to our fall group fitness calendar. Isha will be teaching yoga on Thursdays in the spin room at 12pm this fall while Sophia is on leave until the end of the year. De-stress on your lunch break and allow your mind and body to connect as you flow through various movements on the mat.
September 9th: Spin and Strength Flash Class
Join Tiffany on Monday, September 9th at 12pm for a special 45-minute class on and off the bike. This class was created for members who are interested in spin classes but also want some time off the bike to tackle a full-body strength workout.
Depending on class feedback and participation, we may consider adding this class to the group fitness calendar. Email kara@ignitebiofitness.com with your feedback or please submit comments in our suggestion boxes located in the locker rooms.
