Each class is comprised of 3 circuits with 4 exercises each, and you’ll run through each circuit 3 times. Check out this detailed breakdown below, with running time in parentheses:
– Warm up/mobility work: 5 min
-Initial circuit run through: 1 min(6 min)
-Circuit 1: 12 min (18 min)
-Circuit 2 set up/rest: 2 min (20 min)
-Circuit 2: 12 min (32 min)

No, this class is exactly what you need.
We don’t operate in the boot camp style, and this isn’t the type of group fitness experience where you’re trying to keep up with the person next to you in a dark room with flashing lights. While the class moves fast, we recommend beginners move at their own pace within each station and focus on doing the movements well instead of trying to get as many reps as possible or using a lot of weight.
Since we repeat the workouts for each day of the week for four weeks, those who are new to exercise will have time to learn the movements and will see improvement over time.
No, this class is scalable to be challenging and effective for all experience and fitness levels.
Our barbell movements can be loaded up to 215lbs, we have Dumbbells up to 60lbs, and Kettlebells up to 26 kg. Along with that, we do not condone reps for reps sake, or weight for weights sake – our instructors will be challenging you to perform each exercise with proper form and at a tempo that aligns with your individual goal.
Strength and conditioning is a broad term, but as it pertains to the classes at Epoc Studios it means that our classes are designed to improve strength, agility, muscle mass, balance, mobility, and endurance.
All of this comes together to help you burn more calories (“burn fat”), build muscle, gain strength, or potentially all three – depending on your current level of exercise experience and fitness goals.
The instructor will not workout with you, instead, they will be coaching and correcting your form in real time.
Videos of the movements in each circuit will be displayed on TVs to ensure you know what movements to be doing, and to assist the instructor in demonstrating proper form.
Memberships
All of our memberships do not require any commitment.
While you will be automatically enrolled in a monthly auto pay once you’ve selected your membership level, you are allowed to cancel anytime up to 24 hours before your next billing date.
Depending on your membership, you’ll receive 4 or 8 sessions to use for the month however you see fit.
In order to encourage you to come more frequently, and see better results, sessions do not roll over from month to month.
If you don’t use your 4 or 8 sessions in the month they will expire.
There is a 12 hour cancellation window that we would appreciate you adhere to.
However, we understand that things happen, and as long as it doesn’t become a recurring event you will not be charged any additional fees or penalized for late canceling or no showing a class.
