Looking to get off the treadmill and find something new? The Valley offers several alternative workouts that get you moving in exciting new ways.

Zumba

Grab a friend and dance your way through a full-body workout. Zumba incorporates Latin rhythms and combines them with easy-to-follow moves that are suitable to all fitness levels. Syd Hoffman, owner of Joyful Yoga Studio in Chandler, says her studio provides more than 10 classes per week. Considering a one-hour session of Zumba can burn between 500 and 1,000 calories, it’s no wonder Hoffman finds herself adding more classes to the roster every month. Joyful Yoga Studio also offers Pilates, yoga, indoor camp and cardio kickboxing. www.joyfulyogastudio.com.

Kickboxing

IronGloves Boxing in Tempe offers a hard-hitting way to burn calories in no time. Each session with one of their trainers takes you through 30 minutes of boxing and 30 minutes of core training. The first four sessions hone in on perfecting your boxing skills so that in the future you can achieve a more total body workout. All sessions follow with a post-workout session. The sessions also integrate jump roping and speed bags. Owner Joe Leinhauser says the gym focuses on teaching techniques rather than finding the next Mike Tyson. www.ironglovesboxing.com.

Rock Climbing
