Learn what to Expect in a Group Fitness Class
Stepping into a group fitness class for the very first time can feel intimidating, and our Group Fitness team is here to help! Here are a few tips to get started safely:
- Wear the Right Gear: Dress comfortably in clothes that allow you to move freely. We suggest wearing comfortable workout attire that allows for free total body movement. Shoes are optional in some classes and sneakers are recommended in others.
- Stay Hydrated: Hydrating your body can help you move more efficiently, so please be sure to drink water before, during, and after each class to stay hydrated and energized.
- Mind Your Alignment: Proper alignment is crucial to avoiding injury. Listen closely to your instructor’s cues.
- Listen to Your Body: Some exercises may feel challenging, but nothing should feel painful. If something hurts, adjust your range of motion or take a break.
- Start with Light Weights: If you're new to a move, focus on form, and increase the weight as you gain confidence and understanding of the class format.
- Take Breaks: Try not to rush through exercises (even the ones that are very challenging!) Move slowly and deliberately, especially with heavier weights, and take breaks when needed.
- Ask Questions: If you’re unsure about a movement, don’t be afraid to ask your instructor for help. All our teachers love helping beginners find their confidence. Never forget, even the most seasoned teachers were once beginners themselves.
