Exercise to Music (ETM)
ETM is an upbeat, fat burning cardio-based workout class. It combines retro moves and music with modern style exercises for a fun way to increase your cardio fitness and drop the pounds.
Classic Circuits
Circuit training is a form of body conditioning that involves endurance training, resistance training, high-intensity aerobics, and exercises performed in a circuit, like high-intensity interval training (HIIT). It targets strength building and muscular endurance. But with circuits you move between stations.
HIIT
Made famous by the brilliant Joe Wicks, High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) focuses on short very intense bursts of exercise, where you work to the limit of your fitness. For example, you may do five exercises per round, four rounds of 30 seconds intense exercise then 20 seconds of rest. The calorie burn in a HIIT workout is brilliant and can lead to a higher metabolic rate for a while after you finish exercising.
Aquafit
A form of exercise which provides cardiovascular conditioning, increasing your pulse and your breathing rate in the water. It’s perfect for those wanting gentle low impact exercises.
Spinning
Spinning is a low impact exercise that is easy on the joints. Like running, spinning is a great cardiovascular workout.
Cardiocise
An all-inclusive aerobic/cardio only class. Whatever your fitness levels, this class is sure to burn calories and fat stores. Work to your own pace and push yourself to boost the burn.
Body Strength and Conditioning
Our Body Conditioning exercises will focus on your whole body, targeting different muscle groups to shape, strengthen, tone and prevent injury. We work on an interval-based training method to help build power, endurance and improve mobility.
Stretch, Balance and Core
This is a low intensity exercise class, that focuses on physical recovery, as well a mental wellbeing. The class will utilise different stretches to aid flexibility from static stretches to dynamic ones. This will help to reduce soreness and aching as well as increase flexibility and reduce the chances for injury to help you move and feel better.

Dancercise and Dancefit
