Y6 Sculpt & Flow

Sho Pettaway

Y6 Sculpt & Flow classes are the perfect blend of yoga and weight training.

Y6 Sculpt & Flow classes are the perfect blend of yoga and weight training. A dynamic yoga warm-up will get your heart-rate up and muscles warm, before you dive into an intense, cross training workout that uses body weight exercises to challenge muscular strength, endurance, and cardiovascular thresholds. Then cool down with some juicy yoga stretches to leave you in a puddle on the mat. Y6 Sculpt & Flow is the best of both worlds —a total body workout plus a killer yoga vibe.

Jeremy Liban

Hello, I'm Jeremy, and I love to MOVE. Whether it is (but not limited to) running, rowing, jumping, lifting, climbing or dancing, you can count me in!

Hello, I'm Jeremy, and I love to MOVE. Whether it is (but not limited to) running, rowing, jumping, lifting, climbing or dancing, you can count me in! I train myself and teach others not only move, but to move with quality, efficiency and with a goal in mind. Do you know 'that feeling', when your heart is pumping, muscles are burning, sweat is dripping down every inch of your body? Yes! You feel unstoppable, after achieving the unthinkable! It's 'that feeling', that I burn for! My entire life, I have been active. I played competitive sports, practiced martial arts, and had my share of triumph, injury and defeat. I left my corporate career to follow my passion for fitness to train and learn from some of the best movement teachers and strength & conditioning specialists from around the world. It was a tremendously risky move, but the benefits and the lives changed have been worthwhile. My goal is to share this knowledge to help others experience 'that feeling' (above) and live healthier and happier lives. I am excited to be a part of the Orangetheory Team. The workout variety, performance challenges and team atmosphere are what constantly attracts me. In less than a year, we have built a strong fitness community that is truly supportive, inspiring and fun! I look forward to continuing this journey with you. If you see me around the studio, please don't hesitate to reach out and share your experiences and successes.

Class Description
Orange 60 min
Get results you can see and feel! During our heart-rate based HIIT workout, Jeremy will guide you through our 5 different heart rate zones: resting, easy, challenging, uncomfortable and All Out, telling you when to push harder and when to pull back for recovery. The goal is an elevated heart rate in “The Orange Zone” to boost your metabolism, burn fat and burn more calories.

My goal is to be an inspiration and resource for improving relationships with ourselves, others, and the things we consume so that our community can move, eat, and live better.

I’m Dustin Hogue, and my goal is to be an inspiration and resource for improving relationships with ourselves, others, and the things we consume so that our community can move, eat, and live better.
I have spent my life on a continuous journey seeking more good things. I am always striving for experiences and knowledge that push my personal growth.

My journey has been far from what many may consider traditional. Time in the military sparked a love for travel and adventure. Work in restaurants grew an intense passion for all things food. And experience in the fitness industry created a never-ending curiosity about the body and how it moves.

My experience has taught me that every one of our journeys is unique, but the truly meaningful ones are rooted in an understanding that there is no one right way to Live Good.

I created the Live Good Journey to share what I have learned about achieving balance through movement, food, and life.

I hope you can take something meaningful from my journey and share a bit of yours. Here’s to All Things Good.

Thank you for being here.

Y6 Slow Flow

Julia Fleckenstein

These classes flow at a slowed-down pace so there’s time to explore individual postures and transitions.

These classes flow at a slowed-down pace so there’s time to explore individual postures and transitions. Find confidence and familiarity while refining the fundamentals of alignment and dive into deeper focus. You will gently engage, open and strengthen the body by tapping into accessible poses, fluid movement, and breath.
Barry's Bootcamp Total Body

Holly Keskey-Koester

Three words to describe my teaching style would be detailed, intense, and motivational.

Three words to describe my teaching style would be detailed, intense, and motivational. My classes are fun and high-energy so you can expect a non-stop, high-energy party that will leave you sweaty, confident, and ready for the next challenge that’s thrown your way. My favorite day of the week is Thursday, Abs and Ass, and my playlist genre of choice is throwback pop.

On a personal note, I can’t live without my kid, my guilty pleasure is bottomless bowls of cereal and online shopping. My friends would say I’m funny, supportive, and a caretaker whose attention to detail is borderline obnoxious.
