What you can expect at Thrive for the first time (let’s be honest… EVERY time!)
You can expect the most comprehensive range of fitness pilates classes in Coffs & Grafton! We can offer a range of resistance, strength, cardio & flow workouts within each class – sometimes it’s a little bit of everything, sometimes it’s a lot of one of those!
You can expect to be greeted by one of our amazing team, who will show you around and get you set up before class.
Throughout each class, your instructor will check in with you, guide you through the moves, offer modifications and suggestions. You can expect a nice little burn 🔥, some shaky muscles and to maybe even get a little sweaty 💦🥵
Each style of class is different but you can always expect to be supported – we never want you to be left behind and will never leave you out! Even if you’ve got injuries or niggles, we will always support you to get an incredible workout!
In each reformer class, you can expect…
An awesome workout on the resistance machine. It’s generally a total body workout however, the instructor might focus more on lower body or upper body! You will be offered levels and we always encourage you so work to yours – we don’t do competition or comparison at Thrive! We understand that everyone is there for their own reasons and we support & meet each member where they are at!
Suitable for… beginners through to advance. We can manage most injuries and niggles, however please note that these are group fitness Pilates classes and are not targeted at rehab or physio style workouts. If this is what you need, please let us know and we can refer to another great provider around the area!
In each matwork class, you can expect…
An epic total body class with focus ranging from upper body, core & lower body. We often through some strength, balance, mobility & resistance work in and have been known to add cardio as well!
Suitable for… beginners through to advance.
As these workouts are done ‘on the mat’, there may be some up & down movements that may not be suitable for those with vertigo & bad knees / backs.
In each barre class, you can expect…
The burniest, shakiest legs!! Again, we throw some upper body & core work in however Thrive barre classes are designed with the legs & booty in mind. You can expect squats, lunges, pliès and cardio – ooooh you can expect to get sweaty in here!! Barre was derived from ballet but don’t stress, we’re pretty good at daggy dancing but we won’t ask for too much coordination or rhythm 😉
Suitable for… beginners through to advance.
These classes involve a lot of standing and squatting so may not be suitable for those with knee, ankle or feet issues.
In each strength & cardio class, you can expect…
To get a whole lot sweaty!! This class is based on a traditional HIIT (high intensity interval training) however we use Pilates, strength & cardio moves!
Suitable for… beginner through advanced.
This is a fast paced class and whilst we can provide modifications, we don’t recommend this class for those recovering from knee, shoulder or back injuries. There’s a bit of stand up / sit down / stand up / lie down in this class so be mindful to eat something prior to the class starting.
