Alternative Fitness Bendigo

I have been doing Karin’s Stretch/Fitball classes for about 6 years. I have scoliosis and under Karin’s watchful eye I have been able to loosen up my body and do a great many more things than I could when I started. She is very big on “know your own body” so I can alter some exercises to do them in a way that doesn’t do damage. The classes are fun and the girls are very friendly. Last year I started Chi Ball which is a combination of a simple dance routine, yoga, pilates and relaxation. This is a fun class that is good for the brain as well as the body.

I wanted to get back into a more active lifestyle in the early days of my retirement and I was looking for a class which wasn’t all blaring doof doof music and shouted instructions to go harder, go faster… I can’t jump anymore (knees) and I have other health problems which make vigorous movement nigh on impossible. What a find Karin’s Tube training class has been. A whole body work out which leaves me sweating and feeling great-and Karin’s focus on knowing your own body and what you can and can’t do, while gently encouraging you to try alternatives if one exercise doesn’t work, is brilliant. I also like the relaxation at the end of the class which sets me up for a great day ahead. I look forward to trying out some more classes in the future.
