What is functional fitness? Think of movements and exercises that reflect how we live our lives - pushing, pulling, lifting, bending, reaching, etc. The idea behind functional fitness is to train movements such as these so that we can build muscles and movement patterns that will help us live more fully. So how do we do that? You can start here!

Classes will start with a warmup and instructional section on different strength movements. The second half of class will be a sweat-inducing workout that will be a new format each week, incorporating both new and familiar movements. You’ll walk away with not only some new skills but exercise options you can use in the gym.

Come prepared to move and workout.
