Pietra Fitness Chair

We are excited to introduce you to Pietra Fitness’s new fitness series that can be done from the comfort of your very own chair. The Pietra Fitness Chair classes offers the full-body workout of our other classes, modified for you to do while sitting or standing with the help of a chair. It provides the benefits of a traditional workout such as increased strength, flexibility, and stability, while providing additional comfort and support, especially to those who find other fitness programs difficult either due to age, instability, or other limitations. Pietra Fitness Chair classes can also help with managing stress or pain, improving balance and breathing, and give you deeper awareness of your body. Plus, they can be done at work, at home, or even while traveling, making them an excellent addition to any fitness regimen. And like all Pietra Fitness programs, this workout combines exercise with Catholic prayer and meditation to follow the command to “pray without ceasing,” allowing you to fully glorify God through your body, mind, and spirit.

Pietra Kids

At Pietra Fitness, we believe everyone should strengthen their mind, body, and soul – including children. We are so pleased to finally release Pietra Kids!

Through a unique combination of physical exercise, Christian prayer, and meditation, Pietra Kids helps children calm their minds; relieve stress; focus on the present; improve their flexibility, balance, and strength; and most importantly - increase their faith.

Teachers and homeschool co-ops can use Pietra Fitness Kids throughout the school year as a supplement to physical education classes or any time in the classroom. But, the program isn’t just for schools. Parents can also use Pietra Fitness Kids at home with their children, helping their kids build confidence, get some exercise, relax, and develop a meaningful relationship with God.

You can now search through our videos

You can now search through our videos

We wanted to make sure that our videos were super easy to find so we introduced an advanced search functionality.

Within our studio, you can now search all of our videos by title, keywords, the name of your favorite instructor, or by the required equipment. As you begin to type, the results will sort to make it easy to find what you are looking for. It picks up key words within the description of the video, so using the icons or filters are the most accurate if they are available for what you are looking for.

You can now filter our videos

You can now filter our videos

One of the things we're really excited about with our new site is the ability to filter the videos in our online studio.

When you're logged into the studio, you can filter classes by Instructor, Class Length, Difficulty, or use one of the icons at the top of the screen.

Looking for a 20-minute intermediate video? You can do that now.

We look forward to you trying out this new feature and finding what you need quickly.

We're excited to launch Pietra Fitness 2.0!

We're excited to launch Pietra Fitness 2.0!

We are thrilled to announce the official launch of our newly designed website. As our community of users has grown since we commenced the online studio in 2019, we wanted to make the new website faster, easier to navigate, and more user-friendly.

We have added new features for our Online Studio users. You now have the ability to save your favorite content, use the search bar to filter videos by keywords (the video name, class difficulty, or instructor) and a new login dashboard.

We have also heard your feedback and resolved some past issues users had with the site. This includes things like users being logged out too frequently (every 8 hours) or users not being sure if they were actually logged in or not.

We will continue to create the content that our users have come to know and love, and hope that this new website is a breath of fresh air for you.  We are happy that you are with us, and look forward to growing - body, mind, and soul - with you and the entire Pietra Fitness Community.
