Success, with all components of fitness
A 30 Minute Circuit - The strength-training circuit with 15 stations has been developed to meet the needs of women at all levels. It has equipment that is designed to fit a woman's body. Which provides comfort and health benefits. Unlike our competitor's hydraulic equipment, it is adjustable based on your size and ability level to be sure your workout is safe and you never plateau. This means we have state-of-the-art plate loaded machines with weights. Weight bearing exercise is so important for Osteoporosis and caloric burn-it's been proven! Our equipment progresses with you, so as you grow in your level of fitness you can increase the weights. In 30 minutes, you'll complete a well-balanced circuit training and will see a measurable difference in just a few weeks.
Our Life Vision Group Exercise Classes - There are movement and cardio classes which run all day long unlike other clubs that can only sprinkle classes through out the week. This includes a wide variety of cardio classes designed to burn calories, sculpting to boost metabolism and tone the body as well as mind & body classes to increase flexibility and help you de-stress. We offer classes like step, dance, kick & jam, core conditioning, yoga, Pilates and more. All total, we offer 48 life vision classes each just 30 minutes.
Our Nutritional Lecture Series - These series include everything a woman needs to look and feel great. We have lectures on nutrition, fashion and motivation. We have a registered dietician on staff for nutritional counseling.
Friendly, clean, convenient, non-intimidating atmosphere- 30 minutes is all it takes-you deserve 30 minutes for yourself!
