Advent
Advent is a season of preparation and prayer. Get prepared with workouts that will challenge you physically, spiritually, and mentally.
Whether you enjoy Gentle, Level 1, or Level II Pietra Fitness classes, Advent: Peace 101 can benefit you, especially if you are familiar with ways to modify poses for your body. This balanced 30-minute class will have you constantly flowing through the strengthening exercises and poses, building heat and hitting every major muscle group. Since the Scriptures and meditations invite you to reflect on filling your heart with peace during Advent, this is a great workout to do in the weeks leading up to Christmas—or anytime you want to foster more peace in your life.

Get your heart rate up as you stretch and strengthen your entire body in Advent: Energy Boost. During this 40-minute workout, you will combine high lunges with chest openers, pike splits with crunches, and more, engaging multiple muscles with each exercise and encouraging your body to work even harder. If you need to modify some of the moves based on your own body, Chris will provide a few options for you throughout the class, making this an effective workout for all skill levels. While the Scriptures and meditations focus on the advent of Christmas, the words are encouraging all year round and will remind you that set apart from God there is no happiness.
