Piloxing cardio workout
Piloxing combines the power, speed, and energy of boxing with relaxing dance moves and elements of Pilates. It is good for toning the body and increasing flexibility, while also intensively burning calories. Piloxing also uses weighted gloves to help tone and shape the arms, and to strengthen the cardiovascular system.
Yoga
Our yogaworkout is based on yoga in day-to-day life. This is an exercise system divided into eight levels that progress systematically and gradually. Each level includes asanas – body exercises and positions, as well as pranayamas – breathing techniques, relaxation and meditation.
Yoga 4 Fitness
This form of yoga is a dynamic series of yoga positions (vinyasa yoga) for a strong body, a calm mind, and a courageous heart. The emphasis is on strengthening the body with quick exchanges of yoga positions (asanas) to improve flexibility, strengthen the heart and respiratory system, detoxify, and burn fat. This is enhanced by using a breathing technique that further heats up and detoxes the body. Yoga 4 Fitness is a great way to relieve tension, alleviate stress, improve concentration, and establish inner balance.
Gym
Improve your fitness level with the right cardio workout. Exercise on modern equipment of your choice, either with the help of a personal trainer or following individual programmes created by experts.
Pace
This group circuit training workout accompanied by dynamic music alternates aerobic step exercises with hydraulic equipment exercises at equal intervals. This type of exercise helps burn excess fat, improves your fitness, and strengthens your cardiovascular system.
BBT
The perfect programme for shaping those problematic parts of the body: the belly, butt and thighs. This workout includes aerobic exercises and carefully-selected strength exercises using a variety of equipment.
Altitude training
Hypoxic training takes place in a room with a similar concentration of oxygen as is present at 3,000 metres above sea level. This enables athletes to significantly increase their strength and speed, increases the breakdown of fat in the cells, improves physical fitness and the body’s immune system, and also reduces stress and fatigue.
Cardio training
This workout uses special equipment under the guidance of a personal trainer. We recommend that you perform a cardio test with us to determine your anaerobic threshold.
Pilates
This holistic workout with an emphasis on more difficult-to-reach, smaller, and less-developed muscles helps build strength using the correct posture, strengthens the cardiovascular system, improves physical fitness and coordination, and helps create better self-awareness.
