Group Classes
Group classes are held in the class studio located in the main entrance building.
If you are new to the aerobics program, we recommend that you get to class a few minutes early, introduce yourself to the instructor and tell him/her that it's your first time to take that particular class. Stand where you can see the instructor well. Don't expect to catch every move your first few times, but try to keep your feet moving. Remember that everyone was a beginner at one time. Try to attend 3 or more classes a week and before you know it, you'll be hooked! If you have questions about any of the classes, steps, exercises, please contact AJ at AJLacy@galvestonfitness.com
STEP
A moderate to high intensity cardio class moving on and around the bench. Abdominal work included.
note for beginners: In a Step class, begin with only the platform or one riser if you have an advanced fitness level.
 
KICKBOXING
A high-intensity class for men and women. The class consists of 1 hour of non-human contact kicking and punching. This class will make you feel empowered and will teach you basic self-defense skills.

BODY SCULPTING
Body sculpting/conditioning is a strength training workout that combines flexibility and cardiovascular conditioning using just one set of 5-pound (each) dumbbells. Body sculpting/conditioning is designed to shape and tone the body without building muscular size or bulk. Body sculpting/conditioning is highly recommended to those enrolled in a weight loss program because it helps retain lean muscle tissue while boosting metabolism. Any fitness level can benefit. Our weight training exercises are easy-to-learn and are performed stationary, having no impact on the joints — unlike aerobics and dance-type workouts.       back to top
