Our class principle

Group instead of going it alone

In every class session, a trainer stands at the front, corrects technique and provides an easier and a harder variant for every exercise.

Fixed groups

You train with the same faces at the same time. That makes sticking with it easier than an appointment only you know about.

Two variants per exercise

Each movement is shown in an easier and a more demanding version. This way, returners and experienced members train in the same class.

Times for working people

Classes are held early in the morning, at midday and in the evening. The exact times are listed in the class schedule.

Class formats

Four directions, one class room

Our class offering is divided into strength, endurance, back and mobility. Many members combine two directions per week, for instance a strength class and a back session.

Strength

Full-body training with dumbbells, barbells and your own body weight. The focus is on squat, hinge, push and pull – clean technique before added weight.

Endurance

Intervals on ergometers, rowing machines and the rope, alternating with short strength blocks. You set the pace yourself, the class sets the rest length.

Back

Stabilisation for the core, hips and shoulder girdle, designed for long days at the desk. Calm pace, lots of corrections, little equipment.

Mobility

Mobilisation and held stretches for hips, thoracic spine and ankles. Suitable as a counterbalance to strength and machine training.

Intensity

Three levels in every format

Each format runs at three intensities. We determine which level suits you during your trial session – you can switch at any time without registration.

Returning trainees

Level 1 – Entry

  • Movements are explained and demonstrated individually
  • Work with bodyweight and light dumbbells
  • Longer breaks between blocks
  • No prior experience needed
  • Not well suited if you already train regularly
Most popular choice

Level 2 – Build-up

  • Familiar movements are built up with added load
  • Continuous pace with short breaks
  • Suitable for two to three sessions per week
  • Technique correction throughout the session
  • Requires that the basic exercises are solid
Advanced

Level 3 – Performance

  • Higher loads and denser intervals
  • Complex multi-joint exercises
  • Specific targets for reps and tempo
  • No time for extended technique instruction
  • Not the right entry point after a longer break

In the class room

How a class session runs

Each class lasts 45 or 60 minutes and follows the same structure: arrival, warm-up, main part, cool-down. Before each exercise, the trainer names an easier and a more demanding variant alongside the standard version.

This way, returners and experienced members train in the same group without anyone having to sit out. Group size stays manageable, leaving time for individual corrections during the main part.

Empty studio with wooden floor, window front, stacked step boards, dumbbell rack and rolled-up exercise mats

Please arrive in the studio about five to ten minutes before the start. Mats, dumbbells or a step board are ready; the instructor shows newcomers how much space the exercises need and where the equipment is kept.

  • Indoor shoes with a clean sole; for mat-based classes, non-slip socks are enough
  • Two towels: one for the mat, one for the shower
  • A water bottle — 45 minutes of interval work can easily use up half a litre to a litre
  • Clothing that lets you raise your arms over your head without getting tangled up
  • Ideally, your last substantial meal about two hours before class
  • Please briefly mention any back, knee, shoulder or circulation issues to the instructor beforehand
