Yoga:
Total Fitness Yoga focuses on physical exercises and breathing practices which means greater benefits for you. Beyond increasing strength and flexibility, you’ll also improve cellular function within virtually all systems of the body. Our specialty format benefits individuals of all ages, regardless of their previous experience with yoga.

Pilates:
We also take pride in making Pilates accessible to everyone. Across the country, members have access to the Pilates Mat Class. The class format may include progressions of traditional Pilates exercises and/or may incorporate Pilates-evolved exercises, all of which focus on proper breathing and core control. Benefits include increased muscular definition and improvements in coordination, flexibility, and body awareness. Equipment is not used, however, small props like the Pilates magic circle or foam roller may be used to accentuate movement.

Pilates exercises focus on proper alignment and appropriate muscle recruitment in well-designed exercise sequences. Although a major focus is on the body’s core—abdominals, back, and hips—the entire body gets a workout.
