ValpoLife PUMPS It Up!

The staff at ValpoLife got their “pump” on Monday in the Cardio Sculpt class at Pumps Fitness! Led by Dara Guse, SCW Certified Group Fitness Instructor, the Cardio Sculpt class features step aerobics and strength training, finishing with an ab workout.

The majority of the class is made up of regulars, already familiar with the routines but certainly not bored! Dara keeps the class moving, with upbeat music and an energetic attitude, encouraging the participants to keep moving, even if they can’t keep up with all the moves. “It was a great workout, and I loved the energy Dara had!” raves Natalie Mahlmann, Accounts Manager at ValpoLife.

New members will find it easy to join in, as the moves are often repeated throughout each workout set. “Dara led a great workout,” Nancy Crowley, Account Development Specialist enthuses, “I hadn’t taken a class in years and it was fun and challenging. I think her energy kept me going!” Web Developer Maureen Davey also had positive thoughts to share about the experience. “I was really impressed with Pumps Fitness. The staff was incredibly friendly, and I loved the enthusiasm of our instructor and the rest of the class. I was nervous about doing a class I’d never done with people I’d never met, but everyone was very positive. I loved the attitude they have to just push yourself as far as you feel comfortable. It really helped me push myself harder without feeling self-conscious about my abilities.”

The facility boasts ample space for 20-some people in a class. Plenty of light and just enough mirrors (not too many!) to evaluate your progress, the class room is a positive environment. No need to bring your own equipment; Pumps offers plenty of steps, hand held weights, fitness mats, and exercise balls.
