Reach™ The Center-Floor Workout

Week of September 14, 2019

Reach is a challenging fusion of traditional ballet exercises and fundamental fitness for a unique blend of body-resistance work. Center-floor training is a dancer’s toughest challenge—maintaining balance while away from the Barre. During class you will embark on a personal journey for greater stability and precise control. With technique established early, the work gets harder as muscle response improves. Working all planes
of motion, using turnout methods along with parallel positions, and combining bursts of easy cardio with quiet intense work…Reach creates a wonderful multi-dimensional platform for achieving graceful fitness.

Don’t miss this opportunity to reach beyond your physical ends! Led by a trained dancer, each class will help you develop strength, flexibility, balance, physical confidence and elegance that transfers to all workouts, all sports and–most importantly–to living life to the fullest potential. Reach™ is offered exclusively at The Seattle Gym and Rancho La Puerta. “With Reach, our goal as an instructor is to provide class members the tools to train with the mind-set and discipline a dancer uses daily to master the body” Kari Anderson, Reach™ program originator

Her path to a career in fitness began as an 8 year old taking her first ballet class and then never stopping. She received degrees in Dance and Kinesiology from the University of Washington and after a couple of post-graduate years dancing and teaching in New York City, returned home to Seattle. For over 3 decades she has worked and taught classes alongside Kari Anderson as the fitness wave took off in the 80’s, gaining momentum to the present. Vicki is the Group Fitness and Small Group Training Coordinator for The Seattle Gym owned by Kari Anderson. Vicki’s enthusiasm for fitness has led to multiple fitness certifications, allowing her to teach a variety of workout formats. In addition, she is a proud Co-Founder of the Total Body Tabata™Group Fitness Program and Instructor Certfication, a Balletone Master Trainer, and owner of Tailor Made Training, a personal training company.  She will be bringing Kari Anderson’s beautiful movement workouts, Reach The Center-Floor and Reach The Barre to the Ranch. These ballet-inspired workouts meld her dance and fitness education to help each individual reach for their bodies best. You truly won’t believe how good you will feel!
