A group exercise class is a physical exercise class for multiple participants led by an instructor or personal trainer. Group exercises classes can focus on different types of physical exercise including cardio or strength exercises, yoga or dance.
In the exclusive interview with IGIHE, the Managing Director of Waka Fitness has revealed the Benefits of Group exercise Class and below are excerpts of the Interview:
IGIHE: How many people made up the Group and what do they do?
Waka Fitness: The sizes of group exercise classes can vary depending on the size of the facility and the type of exercise. Participants usually follow the exercises or movements demonstrated by the instructor, who provides ongoing guidance to each member of the class.
IGIHE: What types of exercise do you offer to Participants?
At WAKA Fitness we offer a diverse range of classes including aerobics, tae bo, step aerobics, Zumba, bootcamp (a high-intensity cardio exercise class), yoga and traditional Rwandan dance.
We also now feature a 10-class punch card for just RWF 40,000 which will allow you to join any of our classes.
IGIHE: What are the requirements to join the group?
Waka Fitness: All of the classes at WAKA are open to those in the beginning of their fitness journey or those more experienced in exercise and fitness. Instructors are able to modify routines to make certain movements more difficult or easier to perform, depending on the experience of the participant.
IGIHE: How do people benefit from it and how long does it take to see impacts?
Waka Fitness: Group exercise classes are a great way to make working out more enjoyable and to try new challenges. Depending on the activity, participants may increase their cardiovascular endurance, strength and flexibility. We would estimate that participants who attend a class 3-4 times a week consistently would start to see results. However, after a few months it is important to either change the type of class you attend or ask the instructor to make the movements more difficult for you as your body will get used to the movements and you will see less results.
IGIHE: Do all people allowed to join the group like children, aged persons etc?
Waka Fitness: We allow adults of all ages to join our group exercise classes and we would also like to introduce kids classes like hip-hop and Kinyarwanda dance as physical activity is also essential for children.
IGIHE: Tell us where you are located to help interested people to join you?
Waka Fitness: We are located on the first floor of the Papyrus building in Kimihurura (next to Flamingo restaurant). Our class schedule can be found at: http://www.wakafitness.com/services.html.
