Torch - Torch is a quick, hot, intense class based on H.I.I.T.

Torch is instructed by certified personal trainer Jessica Dillon on Wednesdays at 5:30 p.m. for 30 minutes (starting September 16). Athletic shoes required.
Zumba® - Zumba® makes fitness fun! This unique exercise routine combines the movements of Latin dance with a calorie-shredding cardio workout, all set to energetic music. Zumba classes, instructed by Erin Greiner, and are held Mondays and Thursdays at 6 p.m. for 60 minutes.
Yoga – Hatha and vinyasa style yoga poses help students gain flexibility, strength, balance, and relieve stress. All levels meet together, from total beginners to more advanced students, in a welcoming, supportive atmosphere. Yoga is instructed by Jessica Dillon, who has led yoga classes in New Rockford for over five years. Yoga is held on Tuesdays at 6 p.m. for 60 minutes.
Core Plus – Core Plus is a moderately intense class featuring the toning and calorie burn of pilates-based core exercises and the strength training of a free weights routine, while keeping joint impact low. Each session focuses on abs, legs, glutes, arms, and back muscles. Core Plus is instructed by Jessica Dillon on Tuesdays at 7 p.m. for 60 minutes.
