Group Exercise

The Group Exercise Team is as diverse as our classes. Many choose to teach a few group exercise as a secondary job while others are here every day. All instructors have certifications from one or multiple accrediting organizations. All instructors go through multiple trainings each year to keep their skills sharp.
