Calisthenics for All Fitness Levels
Calisthenics is an exercise consisting of a variety of body-weight motor movements. They are intended to increase body strength, body fitness, and flexibility, through movements such as pulling or pushing oneself up, bending, jumping, or swinging, using only one’s body weight for resistance. When performed vigorously and with variety, calisthenics can provide the benefits of muscular and aerobic conditioning, in addition to improving psychomotor skills such as balance, agility, and coordination. Train to be able to perform advanced calisthenics skills such as muscle ups, bar spins and both front and back levers.
The technique is our main focus in all calisthenic classes. You will be taught the best and safe way to do all the exercises to ensure that you are getting the best and safest workout possible.
