Beginner Movement (Level 1)

Beginner Cardio

Level 1 Cardio – If you are new to fitness or you are having a hard time getting started you should start with Level 1. These workouts contain our foundational movements that are vital to mastering before advancing to the next levels. 

Beginner Yoga

Level 1 Yoga – If you are new to yoga you should start with Level 1. Here, we take you through a basic sun salutation, which is a fundamental progression used in yoga practice. We often utilize this progression in our free yoga classes and will build on it in the next few levels. 

Beginner Strength Training

Level 1 Strength Training – If you are new to fitness or you’re having a hard time getting started you should start with Level 1. These workouts contain our foundational movements that are vital to mastering before advancing to the next levels.

Intermediate Movement (Level 2)

Intermediate Cardio

Level 2 Cardio – If you can complete the foundational exercises from Level 1 with ease and are comfortable increasing your intensity this level is for you. These exercises begin to introduce greater impact to your joints and there will be a greater emphasis on strength.

Intermediate Yoga

Level 2 Yoga – Once you are comfortable with the sun salutation from Level 1 you can progress with Level 2. Here, we introduce you to some of the foundational warrior poses, still built around the foundation of the sun salutation.

Intermediate Strength Training

Level 2 Strength Training – If you can complete the foundational exercises from Level 1 with ease and are comfortable increasing difficulty and resistance, this level is for you. Here, we introduce you to bigger, foundational movements that begin to strengthen major muscle groups.

Advanced Movement (Level 3)

Advanced Cardio

Level 3 Cardio – This is our most intense option for cardio. All of the exercises here contain high levels of impact and dynamic movements. Before advancing to this it is best to have first mastered Levels 1 and 2.

Advanced Yoga

Level 3 Yoga – This is our most advanced yoga option. We build into the salutation foundation more advanced poses that involve greater balance and stability.

Advanced Strength Training

Level 3 Strength Training – This is our most intense option for strength. All of the exercises here are major compound and dynamic movements. Before advancing to this it is best to have first mastered Levels 1 and 2.
