Pound It Out, is a new class that brings together 3 things, rhythm, music, and exercise (although you may forget you are exercising).  You don’t even have to dance to burn off those extra pounds!  All you have to do is drum your way to a better body!

Pound was created by 2 female drummers to give people a fun way to lose weight.  The weighted drum sticks allow you to take your frustrations out without punching, kicking or using a bag.  The music alternates between R&B and rock ‘n roll.

The energetic and amazing (yes I’m gushing a lot here) instructor kept me interested the entire time, a tough fete in my world. At times I felt like I could actually follow a beat. And when everyone pounded, in unison, along with a Nirvana song, all while keeping our legs raised and our core tight, the sound was nothing short of inspirational. We were doing it. We were this band of misfit, fitness-hungry girls getting the past week out of our systems, setting up the week ahead.
