There is no 'perfect' time to start. Your best chapter can begin today. 💪

Our instructor Amy Carroll began her yoga journey at 42 after a back injury led her to try her first class. Afterward, she remembers asking, "What just happened to me?"

From that moment on, she was hooked.

For Amy, what started as one class became a lifelong passion!🧘‍♀️

This summer, try something new. At AVAC, we offer 70+ classes every week so you can find an activity you love.

What are your plans for this summer? 👇

Looking to build strength, boost confidence, and feel your best this summer? ☀️💪

Deshna shares 3 free-weight lower-body exercises that can help you build stronger glutes and create healthy habits that last well beyond the season:

✔️ Goblet Squats
✔️ Forward Lunges
✔️ Romanian Deadlifts (RDLs)

A few tips to get them right 👇

➡️ Lift and lower slowly for better muscle engagement
➡️ Choose a weight you can control through every rep
➡️ Focus on form first. Strong movement beats heavy weight every time.

📌 SAVE this for your next leg day.
