In 2007, Vincent Ruiz came to the Village Health Clubs and Spas from a very successful sports club in Beverly Hills. \u00a0Learning what it took to be an indoor cycle instructor includes a lot of focus on proper breath work and endurance. His training experience was superior and even Lance Armstrong himself would come in and train the group. Being new to the area, Vincent was nervous and excited to get moving at his new position.<\/p>\n
Being hired by the Village was exciting! He loved the ability to design incredible playlists and fun and challenging workouts. With a desire to be the best trainer he could be and give participants in my classes the very best workout, he strived, and continues to strive, to teach his students how to get the best results.<\/p>\n
Vincent\u2019s cycle classes are very fun, high-energy workouts. We\u2019ve had DJs mixing music onstage, a percussionist, and even a full drum set in the cycle room. The classes became very popular and students feel like he brings students a piece of Hollywood along with the best possible workout. Eventually, he started to teach a HIIT (high intensity interval training) class with the same approach. including high-energy music. The classes are challenging and it\u2019s always a priority to help students learn the correct and safe way to do each move. It wasn\u2019t unusual for new students to be nervous to jump, use the step benches, and even that blue half-ball called a Bosu Ball. Week after week, the classes were exciting and they were definitely seeing gains in their workouts, and word caught on to members.<\/p>\n
Eventually, Vincent had the opportunity to cover a fellow trainer\u2019s boot camp classes. After researching, observing, and practicing the classes, he designed classes that provided an authentic experience with unexpected exercises that pushed students to the limit. This type of class is really for everyone and exercises can be modified if needed. However, despite modifications, this type of class requires students to push themselves and work hard for their results.<\/p>\n
The Village, with all of its classes<\/a> and amenities<\/a>, really creates a community atmosphere.\u00a0 We\u2019re here to help you meet and exceed your fitness goals!
