YMCA Fitness




Here is the current list of fitness classes available at my local (and completely awesome--I heart you, Y!  Smooch, smooch!!) YMCA.  I've tried a few, but my Plan 52 goal is to try all of them at least once.  I'll update the list with a few quick notes as I complete each class.  I'll also add to the list if any new classes are introduced.

  1. AbLab
  2. Aqua Boot Camp - My standard class.  I usually do it at least twice a week.
  3. Aqua Burn - Another solid aqua class, but even the instructors can't explain what makes it different from Aqua Boot Camp
  4. Aqua Fusion - Easier than ABC and with more gossipy ladies.  I usually skip this one, but it will do in a pinch.
  5. Body Combat - Feeling lean and mean after this one!  You don't want to run into me in a dark alley!
  6. BodyPump - Another keeper.  Intimidating equipment in a non-intimidating environment. 
  7. BodyStep - Love this class!  High energy and great music.  This class ties Body Combat for highest calorie burn so far.
  8. Boot Camp
  9. Burn - All I can say is OUCH!  This the single most challenging class I have EVER done. 
  10. Core Fusion
  11. Cycle Interval
  12. Cycle Sprint/AbLab
  13. Cycle Tour
  14. Flow Yoga
  15. Gentle Yoga - Nice and slow.  I feel relaxed and calm after this class. 
  16. Hatha Yoga
  17. Mat Pilates
  18. Meditation
  19. Power Yoga - Similar to Yoga for Fitness, but with more flowing movements.
  20. Total Tone
  21. Yoga for Fitness - Nice!  Class is geared towards athletes in training.  Guess that's me too now!
  22. Yoga Stretch
  23. Zumba - All the booty-shaking I was dreading, but tons of fun.  Will I ever get my hips to move like that?
  24. ZumbAtomic - Just realized this class is geared towards kids.  No problem!  I have kids--I'll send them instead!
  25. Zumba Gold
