10 women, in a line, on treadmills sweating it out. Women grunting and sweating under the weight of a free squat. The grimy gym view, it might be my cup of tea but it’s not for all women. Reebok and Cirque du Soleil are making the claim that they are making fitness fun again. And I will agree with them.

A trapeze inspired workout, why not? Who wouldn’t want the ability to run and swing in the air? It sounds a little hooky, it’s pretty funny to watch but I wanted to jump on the Jukari swing so badly when I saw it last night. I was also the only one at the media event who showed up in gym clothes ready to go!

Reebok Canada, Cirque de Soleil and Kingwest Fitness in Liberty Village will be offering for the first time the one-of-a-kind class in Toronto. Beginning Monday, March 28,  KingWest Fitness in Liberty Village will offer JUKARI Fit to Fly to members and non-members. The class schedule isn’t updated on their website yet so I’d give them a call to book a spot in the first class.

The hour-long, full-body workout is performed on a specially designed piece of equipment called the FlySet. The result is a fitness experience that gives the sensation of flying while strengthening and lengthening the body through cardio, strength, balance and core training. JUKARI Fit to Fly is accessible and scalable to all fitness levels.

It looked super easy to me but I think it will definitely be an upper body challenge for all. I’ll just have to put my name on the list to try. Anyone else want to join me?
