A youthful, energetic, progressive international stunning new concept in exercise to music.
A development in fitness reflecting the changing nature of world exercise.
Based on traditional African themes, AFROCISE stems from original movements simulating tribal dance.
An energetic blend of raw tradition and 90’s technology, Afrocise combines the mental and physical aspects of African culture into a free-flowing aerobic style integrating ancient dance. Performed in a circular formation, a drummer in the centre provides tribal percussion to the accompanying techno-African music. It’s continuous stretching and gentler African movements increase flexibility and avoid jarring and strain, whilst improving muscle tone.AFROCISE provides a workout primarily focused in the aerobic spectrum.
The class runs for 45 minutes and is designed to :
- Bring enjoyment into your aerobic workout
- Provide simple non intimidating uncomplicated moves that boost confidence.
- Teach the basics of tribal rhythms
- Introduce a range of new movements
- Produce a non competitive environment.

All this has been structured to enhance aerobic fitness, strength, flexibility and mobility.
