AntiGravity Pilates

AntiGravity Pilates is the newest suspension training program from AntiGravity Fitness, creators of the revolutionary program AntiGravity® Yoga. This certified technique allows practitioners to perform Classical and Contemporary Pilates exercises from the Mat, Reformer, Cadillac, and Ladder Barrel – all on the AntiGravity® Hammock!  This training’s classes take core-strengthening and targeted muscle conditioning to new heights. Explore the amazing benefits that can be derived by training in the Pilates Method on the AntiGravity Hammock in combination with AntiGravity’s Zero-Compression Inversions.  Those with experience on the Pilates Machines will especially appreciate the versatility of the AntiGravity Hammock!

WillPower & grace® is a barefoot group exercise class which is set to revolutionise the fitness industry and Laura Armada Buch is the first and only WillPower & Grace trained instructor in Ireland.   It is a barefoot, cardiovascular high-energy group exercise class that involves a formatted fusion of postures and drills. Both a foot-fitness conditioning program and a workout, it is as philosophical as it is physical. The class, set to high energy music, integrates barefoot training methods designed to strengthen feet while progressively correcting imbalances in the ankles, knees and hips.

Barefoot training has seen a recent surge in popularity as experts recognise that supportive shoes do not allow full articulation of the feet and ankles which can lead to a loss of flexibility and mobility. The willPower & grace® programme teaches participants to stretch their toes in order to increase circulation and mobility throughout their feet and ankles. In the class, participants are taught to use their most intrinsic muscles to land on their feet gracefully; reducing pain and injuries in their feet, ankles and knees.

Aerial Hoop

Ever fancied joining the circus?  Labfitness can bring you a step closer with their brand new AERIAL HOOP classs.   Like with Pole and Antigravity Yoga aerial hoop is suspension training,  allowing you to work with your own body weight. You will learn moves, tricks, routines and a fun and enjoyable way.  Vanessa’s one hour aerial hoop classes which is suitable for all fitness levels includes a warm up, strength training, focusing on core and lower abs, conditioning, stretching and tricks.

20/20/20

Chair Dancing

Be prepared to never look at a simple chair in the same way again! Chair dancing is a fun and exciting way to get you moving and active. You will wiggle and strut yourself around a chair while building up a routine to show off at the end.  Chair dancing will create a cardiovascular workout and also will use your body as a resistance to build endurance and strength in your muscles.   Ready to shake, wiggle and flick your hair to fun fitness?

    I have been looking for ways to get more fit and healthy and came across this blog post. I have never heard of chair dancing before. I would love it if you could make a blog post or share how to chair dance. Thanks 🙂
