It's perfect for people seeking strength, flexibility, posture, and balance. The exercises occur in a class setting and is a fun and challenging way to tone various muscles.

Yoga & Hot Yoga Classes

When you need intense training, our infrared-heated yoga room has you covered. With temperatures as high as 30°C, the hot yoga room will help loosen your muscles, surge your sweating, boost your flexibility, and flush more toxins. What if the hot room isn't your thing? DEFUSE has more options, including classes in cooler temperatures. Besides strength and flexibility training, yoga will help you build your spiritual life and become more grounded.

Pilates Class

Also, our older adult training groups provide a fun and effective way to exercise alongside those in your age group who share similar goals.

Soundbath Meditation Class

PureZenergy hosts our soundbar in the evening, first Monday of the month. While physical training and fitness are often the focus, your conscious self requires just as much attention.
