Program Descriptions
Hear directly from our trainers about how they structure their sessions and what you can expect in each workout. Each one is a little different so find the one that works for you or attend several and keep your workout routine fresh and engaging!
Monday 8am-9am
This training sessions offer a variety of movement patterns including plyometrics, weightlifting, and cardio-focused movements. Each week is different and allows participants to explore different workout styles. The workouts are time-based and circuit style (similar to an F45 class). In addition to the circuit workout, there is stretching and mobility at the end.
Monday 4pm-5pm
My small group training style is a full-body hypertrophy focused circuit in which participants will spend even time at each station and hit every major muscle group. It is moderate to high intensity, but plenty of time for water breaks. Also I take song requests.
Tuesday 1pm-2pm
My small group training sessions are filled with high energy and a sense of community. Each workout is designed to target total body strength while incorporating cardio to improve endurance and overall fitness. Participants can expect personal training-style coaching while doing group activities. Every session is structured with intention, progressively increases intensity as the workout goes on. We finish strong with a fun team finisher circuit that brings everyone together and will leave you feeling accomplished. You can expect to use a variety of equipment -- from TRX and medicine balls to dumbbells and kettlebells — to keep workouts engaging, effective, and progressive.
Wednesday 8am-9am
For my training style, I like to plan full body sessions for my small group training classes so we can get the most done and be the most efficient in an hour. I like to include a lot of different equipment during each class to keep the exercises fun. I include stations to work through which makes the time go by fast because participants are continuously moving. My classes can be geared towards all different types of abilities and intensities because the exercises I choose can be modified or amplified.
Wednesday 2pm-3pm
In my small group training sessions, I start with strength and hypertrophy work for the first half and then shift into a cardio-focused HIIT circuit for the second half. Right now, I'm running a partner‑themed block that brings extra energy and teamwork into the workout. I always adjust exercises with progressions and regressions to match the needs and fitness levels of the people who come in each day.
Thursday 2pm-3pm
My small group sessions are built around functional performance that is inspired by military conditioning. Participants can expect structured rounds, station-based circuits, and occasional challenge-style formats like deck-of-card trainings to keep sessions engaging.
Friday 10am-11am
Every session will be a full-body workout that consists of several stations, including, but not limited to, weight-training and low-impact cardio. I like to incorporate a variety of exercises using free weights, bands, and other equipment!
Friday 4pm-5pm
Experience a dynamic, circuit-style workout that blends Olympic lifting fundamentals with full‑body strength movements and targeted core training. Each session is designed to challenge you, build power, and improve overall fitness through purposeful, efficient circuits that keep you moving and engaged.
Whether you’re new to strength training or an experienced athlete, every exercise includes built‑in accommodations and adaptations to ensure all participants can train safely and successfully at their own level. You’ll build strength, confidence, and technique in a supportive small‑group environment.
