Group Fitness Class

Step into a festive edition of Barre with a joyful holiday playlist! This Barre-based class uses light free weights and bodyweight movements to help you sculpt and elongate the muscles in your core, glutes, legs, torso, and arms. Move with intention as you develop greater posture awareness, balance, and muscular endurance—all set to upbeat, jingle-inspired tunes that bring extra cheer to your workout.

Makayla is an undergraduate student at SDSU majoring in Criminal Justice. Makayla has loved sports and fitness since the day she was born, growing up playing soccer, basketball, softball, and taekwondo. She holds a Third-Degree Black Belt in taekwondo and began teaching fitness back home in 2021 by teaching martial arts and fitness kickboxing classes to both children and adults! She obtained her ACE Group Fitness Instructor certification after completing the ENS 138 Group Fitness Instructor Training course. Makayla now loves to spend her time running (currently doing marathon training), working out, spending time with family, and being at the beach. She believes fitness should be something that people enjoy and look forward to, which is what she hopes students feel after taking her classes. She is also a firm believer in the importance of self-defense and hopes to implement more self-defense classes into the Group Fitness class schedule!
