My name is Yvonne Smith and I´m a POUND PRO since May 2016.
Getting into shape shouldn't be a punishment. It's an amazing and empowering lifestyle decision that everyone can achieve. I believe in finding the pleasurable side of fitness and while there will be a sore muscle or two along the way, the amount of fun and levels of energy you will experience will far exceed the discomfort.

POUND® is the world's first cardio Jam Session inspired by the infectious, energizing and sweat-dripping fun of playing the drums.
​
The class
Using Ripstix®, lightly weighted drumsticks engineered specifically for exercising, POUND® transforms drumming into an incredibly effective way of working out.
Instead of listening to music, you become the music in this exhilarating full-body workout that combines cardio, conditioning, and strength training with yoga and pilates-inspired movements.
Designed for all fitness levels, POUND® provides the perfect atmosphere for letting loose, getting energized, toning up and rockin’ out! The workout is easily modifiable and the alternative vibe and welcoming philosophy appeals to men and women of all ages and abilities.

+ Cinch the waistline, slim the thighs, and strengthen connective tissue and infrastructural muscles with the combination of stability and cardio.
