Aerobics Classes

Aerobics classes were given their name many years ago, when the concept of a class conducted with music was first introduced. I have divided such classes into land and aquatic classes, although one could also divide them according to the emphasis, intensity, or purpose of the class. For example, “spinning” is a new type of class that has developed within the last few years. Spinning classes are basically group aerobic classes that use stationary cycles as the workout mode. Each of the various types of land and aquatic classes also emphasize particular elements.
