What actually happens in class

Picture a dance party where everyone has drumsticks. You follow the instructor, hit the drum on the beat, and somewhere around song three you forget you’re working out.

The tunes

Every class runs on an upbeat soundtrack, from throwback hits to current favorites. It feels more like a dance party than exercise.

The gear

All equipment is provided. Routines fold in jumping jacks, high knees, squats and other calorie-burning moves, all modifiable to your comfort level.

The crew

Members celebrate each other’s wins, lift each other up on hard days, and build friendships that make showing up fun.

Certified Head Coach & Owner

Twelve years singing in a Christmas rock orchestra taught her what music does to a room. Now she puts that energy into every class, with one goal: a space where you grow stronger, find encouragement, and feel the joy of movement through music.

“I know what it feels like to struggle with health. For years I carried extra weight and felt weighed down, both physically and emotionally. But through movement, music and determination, I lost 30 lbs and discovered a whole new level of energy, confidence and JOY!”
