Pilates and Bootie Bar

Pilates focuses on the core with low-impact exercises. Classes emphasize alignment, breathing, coordination and balance through a sequential series of exercises. Much of the class is done on a mat on the floor. To keep the class interesting and challenging, the instructor uses a variety of props, such as light weights, balls or bands. Valerie provides modifications for all levels.  This is a beneficial class for dancers and non-dancers.

Bootie Barre fitness is a low-impact workout that combines elements of ballet, Pilates, and yoga to sculpt and strengthen muscles, especially in the lower body and core. It focuses on high repetitions of small, pulsing movements, often using a ballet barre (handrail) for support. Barre classes aim to build strength, improve flexibility, and tone the body. Class will be using a mat and light hand weights.
