Fitness Class Description
Get fit where you live with Strength Pilates! It is a full-body class designed to build balance, power, and control. After a dynamic warm-up, we’ll flow through upper-body, lower-body, and total-body circuits, then finish with a core-focused burn and a restorative cool-down.
Get zen where you live with Meditation! Relax your body and mind. We begin with 10 minutes of breathwork and gentle stretching to relax the body. We then move into a 30-minute guided body scan (“rotation of consciousness”) to cultivate deep relaxation and self-awareness. The session concludes with 20 minutes of transcendental meditation, allowing the mind and body to rest in stillness and presence.
Get fit where you live with Spinning! An upbeat indoor cycling class focused on building endurance and cardio fitness. Ride to the rhythm with intervals, climbs, and sprints—perfect for all levels.
Get fit where you live with MoveLab! An experimental fitness class blending calisthenics with mobility and functional movement. Influenced by MMA training techniques (no contact), MoveLab challenges balance, agility, and control while building lean strength. Every class is adaptable for all levels and emphasizes learning through movement.
Get fit where you live with BURN & BUILD BOOTCAMP! A high-energy mix of strength and cardio designed to build muscle, and boost endurance. Expect fast-paced circuits that challenge your whole body and mind making you stronger every week.
Get fit where you live with 30’ Morning Muscle Melt! Boost your heart rate while building strength in just 30 minutes! This class combines cardio intervals with light-to-moderate weights for a total-body workout that improves endurance and tones muscles. Expect a fast-paced, high-energy session that keeps you moving and strong.
Get moving where you live with Walk & Talk 101! Join us for a fun, social walk - perfect for exercise, fresh air, and new connections. Every step is a chance to recharge your mind and body. About 60 minutes of walking at a comfortable pace (with options to shorten the route if you'd like). Come for the fitness, stay for the friendships - let's walk, talk, and thrive together.
Meet on the terrace in front of the Richmond Weight Room, 242 Building 3, Ellicott.
Take advantage of a variety of equipment that encourages individuals to create a well-rounded fitness routine that includes cardiovascular exercises, strength training, flexibility, and balance work. Use light dumbbells that range from 2-10 pounds, plyo balls for stability exercise and core, steps for cardiovascular and lower body exercises, small weight bars for resistance training, mats for stretching, yoga or floor exercises and mirrors to check form and technique.
