“You need a community of people to work out with — who push you, motivate you. Every time you walk out of HARA, you have the energy to catch up.”
— Kayla, study-abroad student at HARA
Balance · Power · Stillness — every class is coached rep by rep, max 10 people, built for complete beginners and athletes alike.
01
Strength · 50 min · with Amar
Hard. Fun. Addictive. Real strength training on athletic foundations — press, hinge, carry, rotate. You'll feel different walking out of your first class.
02
Pilates-based control · 50 min · with Martyna · women only
The foundation that makes every other workout better. Deep core, hip stability and postural control — contemporary matwork on Pilates foundations.
03
Barre × strength · 45 min · with Martyna · women only
Beat-driven, fun and challenging — light weights, isometric holds, set to music. Hard to explain until you've done it, impossible to stop talking about after.
04
Breath & recovery · 45 min · with Amar
Your breath sets the rhythm of your life. Calm or anxious. Steady or scattered. Nervous-system reset, breath training and mobility — the class that keeps your semester together.
Real reviews from students and members — all 40 are on Google, all five stars.
