Ais is excited to be offering a HALF PRICE TASTER WORKSHOP on Thursday morning the 27th of February at 10am. This workshop will be a combination of POUND and STRETCHING. Class will begin with a 30 minute POUND Rockout drumming inspired Workout.
This is a full body workout that combines cardio, conditioning, and strength training with Yoga and Pilates movements, while using lightly weighted drumsticks.

We will end the class with a slow gentle 15 minute STRETCH. This will give you the opportunity to nourish your body and mind.
