Skye will lead adventurers into a Dance Fitness class (with disco ball!), a high energy dance workout. Although choreographed, you do not need to be a dancer to enjoy. Moves are fun and easy to follow. Adventurers will have a blast dancing together; please feel free to get into your favorite 80’s workout gear!

Post all of that working out, adventurers will get a gentle yoga practice, stretching out any tight places. After lying on the floor comfy cozy with an appetite nicely built up, we’ll get into a spread of vegetarian favorites to replenish bodies, minds & spirits.
