CLASS POLICIES
You are welcome to join any class type as a first time client there are no prerequisites. We do recommend our FULL BODY class as a first time guest so you can get a good grasp of what the BBS method is about. FULL BODY is our most popular toning class that works the full body with short intervals of dance cardio to spike your heart rate.
Not at all! You can have two left feet and still enjoy a Dance Cardio class at BBS! We repeat the choreography over and over throughout the class so you have a chance to learn the short routines before moving on. It doesn t matter if you re doing the steps perfectly - just keep moving and have fun!
