Everyone is welcome, no matter current level of fitness, as our environment is open and safe for everyone. Instructors give everyone options to each movement. No one is forced to do what doesn’t feel safe, or even doable.

Your safety is our top priority. Instructors inspire you to stay motivated because we know how hard it is to stay the course. Here are short descriptions of our current classes.

KickAeroBix:

This class is Fitness Kickboxing on Heavy Bags (the OG fitness kickboxing class in Santa Cruz County since 1996). All movement consists of several levels so that everyone is easily accommodated. First-time exercises thru advanced exercisers feel comfortable, as our Instructors focus on all participants in the workout.

After a brief warmup, everyone puts on bag gloves (we provide these for your first class), in order to strike the heavy bags.

Rhythmical movement follows the warmup, utilizing the heavy bags. This is the bulk of the class. Instructor’s segue into a short session of conditioning, if they choose to do so. A cooldown/stretching segment ends the workout, as your muscles need the benefits of a good overall stretch. You leave feeling elated! This is a great workout to start in any season.

BodyPump:

It’s weightlifting on your terms, which means you get to choose the amount of weight you want to use for each ‘track’ (the muscle group we’re working), paired to a song. Music keeps us moving thru each track. Consistent movement to a beat supports you in getting thru the entire track (the fun factor).

You start with very light weights. It takes a few weeks before you add more weight, as your body has to adapt to the current weight configuration (this is a safety factor). All instructors guide you on weight choices, keeping safety in mind. Major muscle groups are activated in this workout, providing a full body experience.

HIIT-Kick

High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) studies indicate it’s one of the best methods to use when people want to be fit. You’ll feel those impressive results, including changes in your body composition.

In this class, you experience a segment of HIIT movement (not to the beat of the music), and a segment of rhythmical movement on the heavy bags. Also included is a warmup and a cooldown, which are two critical components of safety for your body.

FighterFit Fempowerment

This is the heart of all our workouts for learning self-defense. Various methods of movement are utilized, as self-defense is multi-faceted. Make this your workout if you want remarkably usable self-defense training.
