Is Absolution a Good Workout?

Absolutely! Absolution improves your flexibility, balance and core strength.

• Flexibility training helps prevent injury and deepens range of movement. The benefits of flexibility include improved posture, decreased risk of injury, increased physical performance and reduced muscle soreness.
• Balance is essential in our everyday activities. Often a neglected component of fitness, balance is challenged through standing exercises and exercises that decrease the base of support. Balance training brings improvements in coordination and posture.
• Core Strength. Increased core strength helps to provide a firm base of support for virtually all movement. Strength and coordination of the core and back muscles is important not only in improving overall fitness, but also improving the functional fitness activities of daily life.

How Difficult is Absolution?

Attention Abs! Exercises targeting core strength are manageable for everybody. Upping the ante with hard, harder and hardest exercise options throughout class allows everyone to feel challenged and successful. “I regret that ab workout,” said no one ever!

How Long Is Each Class?

What do I need to Bring?
