A workout session
Our sessions are unique in having the instructor in the middle of a circle leading, encouraging and exercising together with the participants. All sessions contain warm up, mobility, strength training, cardio-vascular training, slow down, stretching and relaxation.

The different workout intensities
The three main workout intensities are:
Basic - straightforward and easy with uncomplicated movements.
Medium - tougher exercise with gentle movements.
Intensive - the toughest intensity where you put your muscles and cardio-vascular system to the test |

Basic (bas)
If you want to improve your fitness, strength and flexibility. Straightforward and easy with uncomplicated movements. In these classes, jumping is avoided.
Medium (medel)
You are fairly fit and like somewhat tough exercises, but with gentle movements. Higher tempo and some jumps.
Intensive (intensiv)
Our toughest intensity; thorough exercises which put your muscles and cardiovascular system to the test. Very effective training for fit people.
Strength/medium (styrka/medel)
This session is a little bit different compared to a regular basic/medium session. Emphasis on improving your strength. We use strength- building exercises during a longer interval and with more repetitions.
Pulse medium (puls)
A Pulse session concentrates on the cardiovascular part of the session. You are quite fit, you like high tempo and you get inspired by challenging co-ordination in the cardiovascular sections.
Station basic (Station/bas)
Station training combines a normal basic session with effective strength training with tools, at different "stations". The duration of the session is one hour and 15 minutes with a long strength part in the middle of around 25-30 minutes.
Core/Bosu
This workout focuses on exercises which strengthen your abdominals and back, and stretches out your body. With the bosu (a balance trainer) you challenge your cores and balance even more. Try it, you like it!
Step/Aerobics
Step/Aerobics is a session inspired by choreography. This session includes warming up, flexibility and strength exercises, but the main focus is on the choreography and physical fitness part, which challenges your coordination and consists of complex step combinations. The intensity corresponds to a classic medium session. |
