Stix & Kix Drum Cardio Class

Cardio drumming is a fun new way to exercise!  It’s drumming on a stability ball to fun music, with dance moves thrown in!  And it has so many healthful benefits!  While it raises your heart rate and burns calories, it helps improve coordination and strengthens muscle groups like your arms, legs and core.  The best thing is you don’t have to be a skilled drummer to have a blast in this class!  If you love moving to good music, come join us!

 All equipment provided.  Just a towel and water bottle is all you need!
