Item Description

Come join Las Lomitas mom, Margaret Romero, in 10 fitness classes at Alpine Hills Tennis Club in Portola Valley or a private studio in Woodside. She teaches 2 core fitness classes Monday through Friday: Beyond The Barre and ViPR.

Beyond the Barre is an hour long fitness program that incorporates elements of pilates, yoga and resistance training. Using a variety of props including balls, weights, bands, sand bags, blocks and a ballet barre, Beyond The Barre is a high-energy functional class that works your body from head to toe. The combination of strength training, flexibility and core conditioning exercises coupled with the muscle-shaping principles of isometrics and the intense pace of interval training systematically exhausts and tones all the muscles in your body. With dedication, you can expect to see noticeable results in a short period of time: an improved, leaner physique with stronger core muscles; improved strength and endurance; increased flexibility and better posture; and as an added bonus, increased bone density! This is not an ordinary barre class, it's an integrated full body workout.

ViPR ('viper') may look like a humble rubber tube but it's actually an extremely effective training tool that allows us to combine strength and movement training. ViPR stands for Vitality, Performance & Reconditioning. By using a ViPR we can do a progressive and fun variety of real-life movements that integrate your whole body to maximize your metabolic rate and caloric expenditure while increasing your endurance and strength.
