Who says exercise has to be all about heart-pumping intensity? If you polled a group of gym-goers, many would probably say they enjoy working out purely for the mental benefits of burning off steam and reconnecting with their bodies. Weightlifting and HIIT workouts certainly provide these benefits, but sometimes, we all would like something a little slower-paced.

In-Shape Family Fitness is here to help! With gyms in Fairfield and across California, In-Shape Family Fitness is not only a gym for heavy lifters and cardio enthusiasts, but also those seeking mindful motion. The best way to practice mindful motion is in an In-Shape Family Fitness studio fitness class! Here are a few options to consider.

Barre

This ballet-inspired class is perfect for reconnecting with your body and practicing mindful motion through intentional movements. It can also help you tone and strengthen your stabilizer muscles and core, making you feel stronger and more confident in everyday movements. Barre and Barre Fusion are available at the best gyms Sacramento offers, along with many other In-Shape Family Fitness locations.

Pilates

Who wouldn’t want more strength, stability, and balance? Pilates is the ultimate studio fitness class to help you build and maintain all three. Pilates movements are incredibly controlled, with an emphasis on maintaining the mind-body connection, which allows you to better understand how your body moves while building strength at the same time.

Yoga

Looking for the yoga classes the Vacaville fitness community loves? In-Shape Family Fitness is your destination. You can discover a variety of yoga classes, including Infrared Hot Yoga, Simply Yoga, Power Yoga, and Yoga Flow, depending on the location. All of these yoga classes feature knowledgeable, inspiring instructors who will lead you through the full routine. Even if you’ve never tried yoga before or aren’t the most flexible, you’ll love these studio fitness classes.

Stretch

While some of these classes can be sneaky challenging and considered a workout, Stretch is more for recovery, perfect for after a workout or on a rest day. As the name implies, Stretch will help you improve your flexibility, which can help you reduce injury risk while improving your overall athletic performance. This is a great class for weightlifters, long-distance runners, or anyone who could benefit from better flexibility—couldn’t we all?

Tai Chi

Want to ignite your internal energy and refocus your mind? You’ll love the Tai Chi studio fitness class at In-Shape Family Fitness. This class is the real deal, combining tried-and-true principles of Tai Chi in addition to Sun Style, Qigong, and Yang Style.

There are times when going to the gym solo can be ideal. You might want to put in your earbuds and focus on your workout with minimal distractions. There may be other times, however, when you want a gym buddy.

At In-Shape Family Fitness’ gyms in Elk Grove—and throughout California—you can work out solo to your heart’s content. But there are also countless opportunities to work out with a friend—including In-Shape Family Fitness’ studio fitness classes.

Why sign up for a studio fitness class with a friend (or multiple friends!)? For some people, it can be an even bigger source of motivation—and studio fitness classes can be very motivating places.

It’s Even More Motivating!

When you want to feel even more motivated in your workout, going to a studio fitness class with a friend or several friends may unlock that motivation. In the class, you can play off one another’s energies. In-Shape Family Fitness’ studio fitness class instructors already bring a lot of energy and encouragement, but having a friend can dial it up even more! When you’re motivated, you may be more likely to stick to an activity long-term.

It’s More Fun!

Having a friend around can make any gym experience a little more fun. Whether working out with the cardio machines or taking a studio fitness class, a partner can add more excitement to the experience. That isn’t to say an In-Shape Family Fitness studio fitness class lacks in the fun department. Yet, there’s something special about having a gym buddy participating alongside you. It can increase your engagement, which may help you get more out of the class.

You Can Hold Each Other Accountable

When you hit In-Shape Family Fitness’ Bakersfield gyms or any of their gyms, you likely go there with purpose. You may have fitness goals in mind, and studio fitness classes may play into those. One of the most critical parts of pursuing any goal is accountability. This is where having a gym partner can make all the difference in the world. You can make sure they make it to your Tuesday class, and they can do the same for you. No slacking off!

You Can Try New Classes Together

Is there a studio fitness class available at one of In-Shape Family Fitness’ Stockton gyms that you wanted to try but didn’t want to sign up for solo? This is where having a gym buddy can yet again make a difference. You can try new classes together and “break the ice.'' It can be a great way to build up confidence in trying out new classes across the board. For example, you might start with a dance class and work your way to other classes that might have previously been outside your comfort zone.

A pool can be a versatile amenity. You can go for a low-impact workout swim, enjoy time in the water to wind down after a busy day, or simply lounge by the pool after a workout inside In-Shape Family Fitness.

Enjoy the Outdoor Courts, Including the Pickleball Courts

Have you joined the pickleball craze? In-Shape Family Fitness is home to the pickleball California can’t seem to get enough of. A growing number of In-Shape Family Fitness locations have added pickleball to their roster of amenities—and many locations have outdoor courts.
