What is Spirit Fitness?
Spirit Fitness is a unique combination of guided conscious meditation, Hatha yoga, cardio aerobics, and core strength building. This combination facilitates spirit, mind and body wholeness, with a focus on nourishing inner strength, increasing flexibility, physical strength, and cardiovascular endurance.
Imagine the power of experiencing your fitness regime having let go of the tension and stress of the day, centered with present moment awareness, ease and flow. Class begins with a 7-10 minute guided Spirit Awareness Meditation directing you to to center, ground, define your boundaries, cleanse your aura and nourish your personal space. From here your Spirit Fitness trainer directs you to stretch with gentle Hatha Yoga poses for another 7-10 minutes.
The music changes from soft to modern upbeat as you move into cardio aerobics and core strength building. Resistance training, weights, and balancing combine to ensure you receive a well rounded fitness experience.
Complimentary herbal tea and signature ginger snap cookies finish every class. You’re body, mind and spirit will love you!
“You are an indivisible entity of matter and consciousness. Renounce your consciousness and you become a brute. Renounce your body and you become a fake. Renounce the material world and you surrender it to evil.” Philosopher and novelist Ayn Rand
