Walking in, I feel an instant surge of feminine power and a sense of confidence making me feel as though I can do anything…
 
I have entered Felinity, an all-women’s fitness centre located at 794 Broadview Avenue in Toronto, that incorporates fun and unique forms of fitness to get you fit and achieve your fitness goals.
 
Through the core feminine movement series, the studio has created workouts specifically designed for women that include mind/body fitness, pole dancing and hula hooping, all using techniques from dance, yoga and pilates.
 
In addition to their wide selection of classes, members can utilize the fitness centre, consisting of cardio, strength training machines and free weights and can receive private personal training sessions.
 
I had the opportunity to try a “teaser” class, giving me an introduction to the pole dancing workout – something I have never tried before. Lead by the amazing instructor, Joanne Kearsley, I was instantly at ease in such a supportive environment, sharing such a unique experience with a variety of women.
 
The class of seven were from all walks of life and different ages, joining together for an empowering workout that would allow us to all get a little more in touch with our feminine sides and discover our own natural movement.
 
The hour and a half class began with the felinity mat workout which is a series of yoga, stretching and strengthening exercises before moving to the pole dancing portion of the class.
 
Although nervous at first, I relaxed and gave it my best shot, while sharing lots of laughs and eventually mastering the “fire chick” move.
 
Felinity is a fun, supportive environment, where you can build strength, body awareness and mobility.
 
Be sure to check out this Toronto hot fitness spot if you are looking to incorporate something new into your workout routine.
 
On Friday, March 26th, Felinity will be holding their monthly teaser class, costing $12, with all money raised going towards charity.
 
So go out and try it, maybe bring a girlfriend and do it together, but most importantly have fun!
