Group classes are designed to give results, in a fun, safe and positive environment. Private sessions allow for
personalized attention, and programming is specific to each client’s goals, anatomy and physical limitations.

New students are encouraged to take one or more private sessions before jumping into a group class. This allows the
student to learn proper alignment, terms and general guidelines and principles to ensure their safety in a group setting.
