48 OCTOBER 2017 Arc A d A News By Michelle Donati-Grayman Summer might be over, but many Arizonans are committed to breaking a sweat all year long. Boutique fitness studios have supplanted traditional gym memberships for many. These studios offer a personalized experience ranging from personal training to small group circuit training. They are the fastest growing segment of the fitness industry. It’s hard to keep up with the growing number of studios popping up across the Valley. Here are five classes to consider the next time you’re looking to switch up your fitness routine. SCORPIUS DANCE THEATRE Scorpius Dance Theatre offers an artistic workout with its aerial silks classes. Teens and adults can opt for the beginning/ intermediate class that focuses on basic climbs, knots, spotting and posture, as well as different poses and transition sequences. Classes are taught by the studio’s professional performers and are designed to build strength, improve balance and increase flexibility. The workout is suitable for all fitness levels, and is great for anyone who is up for a challenge and wants to learn something new. A class for kids and young teens (ages 8 through 15) is also available. Classes are $26, but you can save $5 by registering online in advance. Visit: scorpiusdance.com. JABZ BOXING Jabz workouts are specifically designed for women, combining boxing, agility and core work and strength training. The workouts change daily and exercises can be modified to meet the needs of clients, from those who have never worked out before to elite athletes. Classes are limited to 16 clients, so women get the individual attention they need from certified trainers, while throwing more than 1,000 punches during each 45-minute workout. The studio prides itself on not only being a gym, but a community of women empowering other women. New clients can sign up online for a free week or pay $34 for a month of unlimited classes.
