Kinesis™

Group training sessions on strength-training machines can often be a lit-tle boring. This class offers a new and more varied alternative. Kinesis® is a new three-dimensional training approach that goes back to the ori-gins of the natural movement. The design allows for a new and complete sense of freedom, as it allows you to make straight, diagonal and circular movements. The moving parts of the machines, which are based on the latest scientific findings in the field of biomechanics, are hidden behind the wooden walls and invisible to the user. The goal of Kinesis is the simulation of the movements and activities that meet the needs of the human body and mind. Balance, flexibility and strength can thereby be trained in and improved.

An immediate improvement in strength, stability and balance can be observed during the training session.

Olympic Weightlifting

Classic weightlifting is not only an integral part of every training programme, but is also an Olympic discipline in its own right. It is a technically challenging discipline that requires speed, strength, coordination and mobility. The techniques are practised exclusively with barbells.

The UV rays on our skin allow our bodies to produce vitamin D and stimulate the release of serotonin, which makes us feel happy.
