EXPERIENCE APEX
THE WORKOUT
Introducing APEX | High-Intensity Pilates. Yoga Pod is bringing a revolutionary workout to Gainesville! This is a low impact, slow resistance training that will elevate your physical conditioning to its highest point. APEX commands proper alignment, body mechanics, and muscle recruitment for a safe, focused, high performance workout. Maximize your results, minimize your potential for injury, and optimize your health. Time under tension requires disciplined focus and endurance to activate your innermost strength. Reach your peak at APEX. New students must watch the New Student Machine Tour, and arrive on their machine 15 minutes before class starts. Late new students may not be permitted to take class due to safety.
THE MACHINE
APEX is a high-intensity, low impact, machine-based workout that will fire up your core to fuel every movement. Build the stamina of your slow twitch muscle fibers as you target your entire body, with special attention to the most commonly overlooked muscle groups; deep core stabilizers and glutes. The pilates-inspired machine houses 2 platforms and 1 gliding carriage which can be springloaded from 0 to 180 pounds of resistance to challenge every fitness level. Transform your body and optimize your health.

It’s all connected 🕸️
“There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature— the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter.”
We hope you’re enjoying the crisp bite in the air today, Gainesville. 🐺
🔊 Sound up to hear curtsy stretch tips from our most beloved @emily_tharp_pendley
If you’ve taken a Deep Space class, you’ve tried this curtsy stretch. Some tips to make this feel really good:
🖤 Create space between your front and back foot. We often see students with their ankles crossed over each other— give them some breathing room 🌬️ this will open your side body up for a gentler, better feeling stretch.
🖤 Soft bend your front knee and sink weight into your back heel. Anchoring your back heel to the floor as you press your carriage away will really take this stretch to the next level.
🖤 Push more firmly into whichever hand is on top of the other in this stretch. If your right palm is on top of your left, your right side body is your target stretch zone. A stronger press into your right hand here will deepen the benefits of the stretch.
We love to see you all lovin’ on our Deep Space classes 🪐 if you haven’t hopped in yet, give it a try!
