Class Descriptions
A spin class, also known as indoor cycling, is a group exercise class that takes place in an indoor cycling studio or gym where participants ride stationary bikes to music while following an instructor’s lead. Spin classes are designed to be low-impact, high-intensity workouts that target all major muscle groups, including the quads, calves, glutes, and core. The classes often focus on strength, speed, and endurance, and can include challenging exercises like sprints and climbs. Instructors guide participants through different speeds and resistances that simulate various terrains and intensity levels, and the bikes have adaptable resistance levels so participants can set their own pace. Spin classes are typically 30–45 minutes long and are often filled with upbeat music and an extroverted instructor who helps motivate participants to push themselves.
Cardio Crush (also know as cardio dance fusion) is a type of workout that combines cardio, dance, and body sculpting to create a full-body workout. It can be an energetic, fun, and calorie-burning experience that doesn’t require any dance experience. Cardio dance fusion classes can include a variety of moves, from simple to advanced, and may incorporate different types of music, such as hip-hop, pop, raggaeton, and salsa. Some classes may also include light body weight training.
Total body workout classes are designed to engage the entire body using a combination of cardio, strength training, and other exercises. The goal is to tone and firm muscles, build strength and endurance, and improve flexibility and balance. Total body conditioning classes incorporate strength exercises and cardio segments using equipment such as dumbbells, body bars, and bands for a total body workout.
The class offers a high-impact and high-energy workout and are meant to deliver total fitness and overall toning by using every major muscle group in one workout. Typically, as you increase the intensity the more calories you’ll burn. Externally you’ll tone and see improvement in areas such as legs, abs, upper arms, but you’ll also be improving you heart and lung function.
Total Body is intended to provide total fitness and overall toning by working every major muscle group in one workout. The aerobic component helps burn calories, while the strength exercises help build or maintain muscle mass which burns calories even when you’re not working out and increases bone density which can help prevent osteoporosis.
Yoga developed thousands of years ago around India although the exact origins are uncertain. Yoga is for every person in every age; therefore yoga keeps changing just as time keeps passing. What ancient yogis did in dark caves many years ago may not exactly be what we are doing today, and that’s o.k. What’s important is that the essence of yoga is still here. Yoga is and always has been a way to connect us to the source.
The teachings of Yoga are based on many different philosophies and religions, but, Yoga is NOT a religion, rather it is a discipline, one that leads to ultimate freedom.
Patanjali was the first to write down the teaching of Yoga in the Yoga Sutras. Traditionally they were passed down orally from teacher to student. Each Sutra says in some way what Yoga is and how to attain that divine state. The clearest sutra that defines Yoga is sutra 1:2 Yogas Citta Vritti Nirodhah.
Yoga is the cessation of the fluctuations of the mind, or the restraint of the modifications of the “mind-stuff “. In clearer terms, when you can control the rising of the mind, you will experience Yoga or Union. So what then is really uniting? Well, the union ultimately happens between the individual consciousness (jivatman) and the universal consciousness (paramatman). Yoga aims at changing the individual, (that is why our practice consists of asana, pranayama, chanting and meditation). Yoga does not bother much about changing the outside world. There is a Sanskrit saying, “As the mind, so the man; bondage or liberation are in your own mind.” So whatever you think you manifest. If you think you are bound, you are, if you think you are liberated, you are! Things outside ourselves neither bind nor liberate us; only our attitude toward them does. The practice of Yoga brings clarity to the mind so that we can see and experience this. As Gandhi said, “be the change you wish to see in the world” for you cannot change the world if you cannot change yourself! Gandhi was a great Yogi, and his practice was Karma Yoga, or selfless service to others. He also studied many great texts such as the Bhagavad Gita, so he was also a practitioner of Jnana Yoga.
Most westerners practice Hatha Yoga (postures). There is also Bhakti Yoga (devotional/chanting), Jnana Yoga (knowledge/study), Karma Yoga (service), Kundalini Yoga (awaken the shakti), Raja Yoga, also known as Ashtanga Yoga, (8 limb path); the list goes on and on. It really doesn’t matter what you practice, as long as what you do is focusing the mind and leading to that state of Yoga or now as we understand it, divine union.
Shri Brahmananda Sarasvati defines Yoga as “a state where nothing is missing.”
