Trixter VRX-Biking

Do you need to head outdoors for exercise inspiration, but don’t live in a place where that’s always possible? This is the perfect class for you. This class takes place in front of a big flat-screen TV but instead of a show on there it’s you! You’re riding through simulated streets, dirt tracks and more.

Candle Flow Yoga

Just as yoga was shaking off its reputation of being for “hippies,” this class was introduced (but we love it!) In Candle-flow yoga, you use props to hold yourself in position for long periods while in a circle facing candles in the center. The flame is supposed to instill a sense of calm. Check it out at YogaWorks.com.

TRX Fitness

You may have worked with nylon straps in Pilates before, but this is an entire class dedicated to these stretchy tools. You attach the straps to various stable surfaces, and are able to position your body in limitless positions that give you different burns, at different resistances. It looks a bit like trapeze art.
