Summer can be busy, with vacations and kids out of school, group classes are a great way to keep you accountable and in a routine. The ACADEMY offers several types of classes weekly, ranging from Pilates, yoga, group strength, and cycling, to heart heart-pounding cardio and everything in between. You can livestream into classes from anywhere! This summer there is no reason to let the gains you have made with your fitness disappear during vacations. Below are 5 of the top reasons for you to try a Group Fitness class today!
Accountability – Signing up for a class gives a sense of accountability, from the instructor to fellow attendees. It’s easier to get yourself moving when you know you’re investing in your health and have people waiting for you. Think of class as a motivator to get active!
Community – Group Fitness is a great way to find like-minded people with often similar goals. The energy of other people working out together is a motivator. Many long-term friendships are cultivated in group classes!Â
New Ways to Move – Fitness classes can be opportunities to learn new movements, improve form, and discover new forms of exercise your body may prefer over others! The Centers for Disease Prevention and Control notes that learning choreographed moves can increase your brain’s processing speed and memory.
Routine – Along with accountability, signing up for classes is a great way to create a routine for yourself. Scheduling a workout in your calendar like an appointment makes you more likely to go. Over time, building this routine can make moving daily a priority instead of an afterthought.
Keeps you Interested – One of the great things about Group Fitness is each class is different. Group instructors will vary the workout formats, exercises, music, and coaching techniques. Changing a workout even slightly can keep your interest peaked and your mind focused.Â
The summer schedule is filled with lots of innovative classes. We are starting this week with theme classes to celebrate summer! Check out the schedule online.Â
