Steve Feinberg's Class & Workshop Descriptions:
Fitness Classes:
Aqua Fu: Think Kung Fu/T'ai Chi in the water! Body weight movement to strengthen the entire system and build balance under impact-free resistance using traditional Chinese methods that everyone can do!
Fit2Fight is an interval-based, low impact, complete strength and conditioning module based on work done with teams and fighter preparation. The equipment is professional-grade athletic band resistance in which the participants oppose each other's resistance with core stability and base footwork in order to improve overall performance of the CNS by requiring timing AND strength! Moderate and above strength and athletic levels accommodated.
Form and function
Steve utilizes functional exercises that seek to strengthen muscles, improve posture, prevent injury, and help students' bodies meet the demands of life outside the classroom. Pre and Post-rehabilitation protocols make this class accessible and safe for any age participant!
Hip Box is a cardio boxing class set to a hip hop soundtrack that integrates the fundamental techniques and skills of boxing. Born at Equinox in NYC, the syncopated rhythm and flow of shadowboxing is authentic, incredibly fun, and completely new to the fitness scene! This disruptive model of movement looks like fighting, feels like dancing, and will leave you fired UP! No boxing experience required.
Shadow-Do is a challenging combination of kickboxing and kung fu drills created by career martial artist, Steve Feinberg. This marriage of applicable combat skill and cardio exercise will keep you at your energy as high as possible!
Speedball is a nonstop conditioning class featuring the weight shifting SpeedBALL. Build muscular endurance, increase core stability, and challenge your brain to work with your body in this intense sweat session appropriate for any fitness level! Speedball will have you thinking and moving better to keep you injury-free AND burn tons of calories to help change the way you look and feel!
Speedball Core introduces unique core exercises, balancing mobility and stability, and incorporating interactive partner training. The program can be performed in an existing conditioning class or seamlessly inserted into a personal training session. People are broken up into dynamic duos and help each other become mobile and stable where it counts (and have FUN:)!
Speedball FIT HIT is high intensity multi-directional conditioning including a variety of multi-impact body weight augmented exercises to make the experience exhausting, invigorating, and unforgettable!
Meditations / Stretching:
Move with purpose: (45 min practical) how your gait, alignment and connection from the ground up in something as simple as WALKING affects your posture, your athletic performance, your overall well-being, and your mental state. Unlock better circulation, force transfer, and more confidence through awareness and movement.
Smart body: improving communication of the Central Nervous System to the extremities and the brain's ability to judge movement and react to stimulus in space and time (proprioception) and stimulate vestibular system while building balance and creating appropriate ratios of stiffness:laxity in all the main joints through muscle activation and integration and working through developmental stages of learning. Sensory games, small group work, and playing on the floor included!
Taming the dragon will be a 2 part series, both will be 45-60 minutes. They are both activity-based. One is a combination of the guided visualization of meditation inducing a mental state of deep relaxation followed by blood flow exercises (circling and slapping). The other is rooted in stances that progress to basic footwork and arm patterns with specific breathing techniques to build bone density, chi reserve, and lymphatic clearing. The second one will be physically challenging, more gravity on the body.
Workshops:
Gut check: how our body handles stress and duress (30 min lecture, 15 min practical/physical). Learn about the microbiome, how it works, what to give it and why, how to change your habitual behavior in order to maximize function , and how to stimulate it's function on oneself or another manually
He-mugs-me-not! is applicable self-defense based on vital strikes, an understanding of joint manipulating, and basic escape from common grips and holds that help to equalize strength disparities between assailant and potential victims to keep you SAFE (**only to be used in emergencies and for defense of oneself or a loved one, NOT for vigilantism or in place of using the proper channels of law and justice **) 90 min.
Macros 101: (30 min lecture) what are they, how they should or shouldn't be combined, and current eating strategies that manipulate intake (whole 30, etc.) from drastic and temporary to long-term maintenance.
