What the classes look like

Nearly all of these classes carry the strong label, and they are built to work the body hard. Pilates is the most common practice, and many classes focus on the core and pelvic floor. Yoga makes up a good share of the rest, and a few classes use mat work with weights or cover strength in general.

The classes sit almost entirely in the morning. Starts run from 8am to 10am, with the busiest start times at 10am, 9:30am and 8am. Tuesday and Wednesday carry the most classes, so the middle of the week is the place to look for a full schedule.

Where and with whom

Zen Den Studio runs Pilates Fusion, Holy Yoga of Connecticut offers Strong & Courageous, and Rhinebeck Pilates hosts Not In-Studio Mat with Weights. Rhinebeck is the neighborhood where the most of these classes take place, and the three studios together give the collection its shape.

Most classes are about an hour long, and the shortest runs 45 to 50 minutes. The facilitators who lead the most classes here are Mary Waldron, Maryann Ness and Shannon Flynn-Boenig.
