If you want to get in shape, our exercise classes can help you to reach your goals. This is the time of year when most people become aware of the extra pounds that were gained during the winter months. As the shorts and tank tops come out, now is the time that most people want to get into shape. If you are one of them and have weight loss or exercise goals, we invite you to join one of our classes so that you can be encouraged along your journey.
The Benefits of Taking Exercise Classes with a Group
One reason to take a class is to be motivated and encouraged by those in the same situation as you. When you see other people that are also trying to get in shape, it can help motivate you to keep going and to show up for class. This will help with your personal accountability since your classmates are likely to ask where you were if you missed a session. For a lot of people, this is all it takes to stay on target. It’s also fun to workout with other people. You can make new friends, engage in conversation and take the time to do something for yourself. For people that are busy taking care of kids or working a demanding job, this time for self can be incredibly rewarding and help to bring some calm into your life. Exercise has also been proven to release endorphins that can put you in a better mood.
Exercise Classes Are Designed for Various Levels of Fitness
If you are worried that you won’t be able to keep up or that the class will be too advanced for you – don’t be. There are various classes that are designed with specific fitness levels in mind. We don’t expect you to be an expert right away, and neither do your classmates. You may be surprised by how encouraging everyone really is. You can take your time, get acclimated to what we are doing and gradually build up your strength and endurance. If it only takes one class to get up to speed, excellent. If it takes you a month or two, that is fine as well. The objective is to keep up with the class and to do your best. You will naturally build up the endurance that you need to do more or to workout harder. Your body will direct your pace, and it’s important that you listen to it. If you try to do too much too quickly, you could end up injuring yourself which will set you back even further. Instead, be patient with yourself, listen to your body, be consistent and have fun. This way you can maintain an exercise routine that is sustainable, rather than pushing too hard and burning out.
We offer a variety of exercise classes for you to choose from and encourage you to visit us to learn more. We can discuss what you are interested in and help you to select the class that is right for you.
