If you have not tried one of our classes,
you are missing out on one of the best options available in this area! Our group exercise classes are designed by exercise physiologists & therapists of Covenant Health. All our instructors go through an intensive training, not just a weekend or on-line certification. Classes are offered in Knoxville and the surrounding area. Cost is $3/individual/class or $5/household or couple/class. Those over 50 year of age, Covenant Health employees, and church members of host churches receive class discounts.
To help guide you through our class menu, we have arranged classes by the fitness aspect that the class targets. You may attend multiple classes and multiple locations. So convenience and flexibility are also two more advantages of
bodyworks.
Cardio Focused Classes:
CardioMIX is a high energy aerobic workout but easy on the joints, we don't jump or run, but we are tough on fighting the bulge!
We incorporate many styles of cardio to keep the workouts fresh & fun! We may do a little kickboxing, a little dancing, a little step moves without the step (you have to try it), and maybe even some GI Joe moves. What we won't do is the same ole workout with the same ole music week after week.
Participants need a mat and weights.
Advanced Sr Cardio classes are for the more fit seniors chanllenging them with a tougher workout but still catering to the needs of the "mature" person. We do use floor exercises for a more advanced workout. Even though this class is designed for those 50 and older, younger will get a great workout as well.
Participants need a mat and hand weights.
Sr Cardio is for the active senior who needs a little easier workout but focuses on keeping young at heart. We do NOT go to the floor with this class, so most active seniors can get a great workout here.
Participants need light hand weights, but optional.
SitBFit classes are for any age person who needs an easier class which is primarily performed in or with chairs. This is a great class for anyone with mobility issues. This is also a great workout for continuing rehabilitation after injuries before moving on to the harder classes.
Participants are encouraged to bring light weights, but optional.
Muscular Focused Classes:
Pilates with us is enjoyable and effective. We only use conservative, safe exercises but give you a great muscular workout. If you have never tried a Pilates class, try ours, you will be glad you did!
Pilates primarily uses your own body as it's tool.
Participants need a mat.
The BALL class is using those big balls--the stability balls which are great to improve your balance along with muscular tone & strength. We do try to "have a ball" while utilizing this great tool.
This class is great for people with back/neck problems--tell the instructor and she/he will show you specific exercises or adaptations to help!
Participants need a stability ball:choose by your height.
Flex class will help anyone reach further with ease! If the lack of flexibility is causing pain or discomfort, or hurting your performance on the golf course or tennis court, this class will help!
The concentration is on flexibility using a variety of stretching techniques and exercises. You will not regret taking this class!
Participants need a mat.
Mind, Body, & Spirit Focused Classes:
Yoga classes are great for everyone! We will teach you the safest and most effective poses and styles of yoga. We take into account that not everyone can or ever will put their foot behind their head BUT all of us can benefit from the principles and exercises of yoga.
If you want to work muscles, decrease stress, and increase your energy level, you should try our yoga.
Participants need mats.
Mind & Body classes incorporate some yoga, some pilates, and a lot of core work from physical therapy. We focus on working your CORE and relaxing at the end. Participants work up a sweat and chill out in the end. Great for anyone.

Exciting New classes coming in 2012:
Tone & Tighten focuses on firming & sculpting arms, legs, butts & guts! A variety of exercises and "play toys" will be used in this class. This class will work all muscles and work them hard! The class motto will be "make it count".
Participants need mats & weights, other tools will be provided by us at class.
Partner UP will be a class for co-workers, class mates, friends, siblings, & significant others so that they can spend time together while finding the time to exercise! Many exercises will use two people in order to "get it done". So, no more excuses, buddy up and get active! Participants must be 12 and older to participate.
Participants need mats.
Baby on Board is our prenatal exercise class designed to meet the needs of the moms to be. We will walk some and then learn exercises which give relief from aches/pains, increase stamina, and will aide in delivery and beyond. "Moms to be" must have their physicians "ok" to participate.
Expecting participants need a mat.
We are currently looking for sites to host more classes, especially for after work (starting 5:30pm or later). If your church, community center, or business has a large open room or gym, and you are interested in this opportunity to partner with us, please give us a call at 865-374-0457! We do all the work, you just supply the space!
