If you’re tired of the same old exercises at your aerobic class or at the gym, then you should know we are, too. What was once new and exciting has become routine, and while they’re still kickass workouts that burn calories, we like to change it up every once in a while! Zumbalates, aerial yoga, belly dancing — these are just a few activities you can expect to find at the Nivesaa fitness studio in Indiranagar!

Zumbalates

Sure, this might initially seem like your run-of-the-mill aerobic dance workout class, but towards the end get ready to work those abs out with a quick pilates session. Why, you ask? Nivesaa claims that after an intense cardio workout is when the body is at its most receptive, and is the perfect time to get your core muscles burning. We tried it and loved it, so give it a shot yourself!

Aerial Yoga

Gravity defying yoga? Sign us up! Aerial yoga isn’t just a great workout, it’s super fun — traditional yoga positions are done while held up by silk fabric suspended from the ceiling. It’s great for improving flexibility and muscle coordination. And surely you can’t get bored of being up in the air!

Flying Low

This contemporary dance style is all about creating a relationship between your body and the floor using speed, agility and smooth movements. Can you imagine throwing yourself across the floor, emerging up in one effortless movement and still looking graceful?! Well, looking graceful after a few classes. Flying low is great for strengthening joints and improving core strength, as well as helping the dancer improve physical perception and alertness.

Belly Dancing

This popular dance that originated in the Middle East is a great way to get a super toned tummy. Focusing on an intricate torso workout and delicate hand movements, it doesn’t get more fun than this. There are different levels, so whether you’re a dance beginner or a seasoned expert, there’s plenty to learn! Nivesaa also changes things up a bit, mixing traditional belly dancing music Bollywood and international music.

Qigong

Qigong is all about balance, and juxtaposes organs of the body with elements of nature: the kidneys correlate with water, the spleen with earth, the lungs with air and so on. Using coordinated body movements, posture and breathing, this holistic Chinese practice helps improve breathing and posture, while also reducing stress levels. If you’re looking to take things slow, this is the perfect exercise for you!
