Zumba Fitness
Zumba classes combine Latin rhythms with high-energy choreography for a full-body workout. Our certified instructors create an inclusive environment where participants improve cardiovascular health, coordination, and muscle tone while enjoying social interaction. The 60-minute sessions use curated playlists to maintain engagement and motivation.
Sculpt by Charli
This signature 50-minute program uses resistance bands, light weights, and Pilates-inspired movements to target all major muscle groups. Designed for rapid results, it alternates between strength training and cardio intervals while maintaining focus on proper form and technique for safe, effective workouts.
Pilates Barre
Combining ballet techniques with Pilates principles, this 50-minute class improves posture, flexibility, and core strength. Using the ballet barre and resistance equipment, participants perform precise movements that enhance body awareness while building long, lean muscles through low-impact exercises.

Our structured dance programs develop technical proficiency in jazz, hip hop, contemporary, and ballet. With age-specific classes and performance opportunities, students build discipline, creativity, and stage presence while receiving expert guidance from industry professionals with international experience.

Charli’s Zumba classes are the best, she brings amazing energy and makes fitness so much fun. The HIIT / circuit classes and Strong, are awesome as well, I’m totally addicted to them and the results they deliver. Studio Charli On Demand during covid kept my fitness on track. My daughter loves the dance school. And I love seeing how happy she is when she’s dancing and the confidence it’s given her. Thanks Charli and team x

Charli has a real understanding of what older people need in a workout and is always positive, cheerful and most welcoming. It is an absolute pleasure to do one of her classes and especially now to be able to do the online classes during this most difficult time.

My 5 year old daughter has done dance classes for 2 years. We recently switched to Studio Charli (jazz and acro) and never have I seen her so passionate and inspired about her dancing. I’m so impressed with Charli, Studio Charli and the other teachers.
