WHAT IS UPLIFT?
SHiNE Dance Fitness has cracked the code to create a strength-training program that’s the perfect balance of effective and HELLA FUN! In fact, UPLIFT so much fun it turns fitness LOATHERS into LOVERS and LOVERS into ADDICTS. This is not a dance class, but each routine is choreographed to iconic music, and when safety isn’t compromised, you’re likely to find a booty shake or shimmy.
A 1-hour UPLIFT class starts with a cardio warm-up and transitions to standing routines with equipment, alternating between upper and lower body. A balance track is included after you’ve fatigued your muscles which is challenging, rewarding, and a welcome change of pace before transitioning to the mat. We complete the workout with routines for the core, booty, abs, and chest and a cool down with deep stretching. This UPLIFTING experience leaves you feeling strong and confident.

“I was a bit anxious to try UPLIFT, but I’m so glad I did! I’m nearing 70 years old and fighting off osteoporosis, back and hip issues…this class is wonderful for me on all fronts, especially with the modifications.”

“My teenage daughter just had to quit gymnastics and she’s started doing UPLIFT with me. Not only does she love it, she’s lifting heavier weights and bands than I am! It’s been so good for both of us, but especially for her as she continues to safely work those muscles she worked so hard for.”
