...stretching afterwards...

Two cute girls asked me about stretching after a workout. Someone they spoke to thought it countered your workout if you stretch. (that it would 'un-do' what you just did.) So I wanted to clarify...
stretching is part of the cool down. It important in injury prevention. Research suggests it may not help with muscle soreness after a workout, but that is controversial. I personally think it feels good to stretch after an intense workout! ...Thats why we do it at the end of my classes. (whether it will make you less sore or not!) Warm up is equally important and can prevent injury. Both warm up and stretching increase your physical fitness by improving flexibility and range of motion.

...Aerobics Guide...
What class is for you?

Step

Step is 45 minutes of basic step combinations. Great cardio workout! We also use weights for sculpting and toning. Moderate intensity.

ABS Lab

Abs Lab is a favorite! Which is why its offered 3 times a week! This quick 30 minute workout is all abs! Perfect for toning and tightening you core. Moderate to high intensity.

Hip Hop


Hip hop and striptease are 2 different classes alternating every other week. They are similar...But Hip hop is more popping to funky hip hop music.
Striptease is like dancing with your girlfriends in high school with a lot of hips and shimmys. Both are fun and a good cardio workout. Moderate intensity and easy to follow choreography. No dance experience is needed.

Plyometrics

The mother of all workouts! This one is tough... But worth it! Athletic training and jump drills designed to make you jump higher, run faster and increase overall fitness. This workout is tough for everyone! From professional athletes to 'The Biggest Loser' contestants. They see results, so can you! 4 30 second drills followed by 30 seconds of rest... HIGH intensity! Big Results!

Kickbox
Everyone has a great time in kickbox. I've been teaching this one for years and its always fun. Simple combinations of jabs, cross, upper cuts, hooks and kicks. Great cardio and sculpting. Moderate intensity.
Body Pump

Body pump is a great lifting class that targets all major muscle groups. Its a fast paced, intense workout that will definitely give you results. High intensity.

FULL Schedule below! All classes are in the PE Building, 3rd floor, room 303.
Classes usually have 15-40 people. Male and female, young and old.
