THE WORKOUT
THE SCIENCE
THE SCIENCE
LISSfit classes all follow the same class blueprint, creating consistency and structure for the instructor as well as the participants. All LISSfit classes begin on the mat, facing downward in a prone position, and gradually "rise" as class progresses. Each class will contain the following "elements": Wake, Rise, Rise 2, Grow, Vitalize, Energize. Heart rates remain in the 60-70% max range.
