Alternatively, PiYo classes mix Pilates and yoga into a potent cocktail of movements, working to strengthen muscles and incinerate calories, and limbs in Hip-Hop Hustle sessions get down to tone up as they shimmy into simple dance moves against a thumping backdrop of tunes. The five-class punch card can be used to mix and match the exhilarating endeavors or folded to form a tiny origami dumbbell.
