Fitgirl: Step Into Spring at the Downtown YMCA March 26th (step routines included)

Yesterday we had a super time during our Step Into Spring fitness class!  A 2 hour step aerobics class with a hilo aerobics component with multiple instructors.  It really brought me back to when I first started instructing fitness, my fave class was step.

We started with hilo, Scott M. did this portion, it was soooo much fun!  It was super intense, our heart rates were definitely up there, and it was only the first 25 minutes of our 120 minute class.

We had all of our favorite step aerobics instructors...Linda W. & Linda C., Sheralyn, Adrian, & Scott T., I really do believe the the YMCA of Regina has some of the best step aerobics instructors around!  Check out one of the classes at the Downtown YMCA, MWF at 12:10-12:50pm, Fri at 4:30pm, and Saturday at 10am.

I instructed the last step portion, I haven't instructed step for awhile, but had a great time, the vibe was awesome.  Here are my combo's that I did:

Combo 1:
2 Basics R
1 Basic of the top R
Step touch R & pivot to face the bench
Step touch L
1 Rpt Hamstring Curl
2 Alternating Knees Corner to Corner

Combo 2:
2 L steps Corner to Corner
On the second Lstep pivot quarter turn
1 Over the top
1 Half Hop
1 Turn Step
1 Squat (with one foot on the bench)

Combo 3:
2 A steps over the top (vertically, not horizontally)
1 Diagonal Over the top
4 Hops back on the floor
1 Up and Straddle the Bench; Up and Straddle off (so you are on the other side of the bench)
1 Side Leg Lift


**All combinations are self reversing.

We had snacks & gatorade :-)  We are already looking forward to doing this again in the Fall!!
