[solidcore] is a national boutique fitness company with 100+ studios across the country. Our signature workout is 50 minutes of low‑impact, high‑intensity strength training: lights low, music loud. The coach guides the class through a series of slow, controlled movements that are sequenced to work muscles to failure. This class is accessible for all fitness levels and can be adapted to meet individual goals. Class is as intense as reviews suggest, but our instructors go above and beyond to provide a welcoming, supportive, empowering, and challenging experience for all.
