De-Stress and Enhance Happiness
– Lauren Roxburgh, Wellness Educator
We have all been to a workout class where you are watching the clock and thinking about a long list of to-do’s. Not at Barre Groove. Bouncing has the distinctive ability to transport you out of the daily hustle and into the mindful movement of your body, fostering a sense of presence.
Full Body Engagement (Legs & Core)
Experience a workout that intuitively activates your entire body. Unlike many exercises that demand conscious effort to target specific muscles, bouncing brings a natural engagement to every part of your physique.
Bouncing also engages your arms, shoulders, erector spinae (muscles along the spine), and small stabilization muscles throughout the body. No muscle is left forgotten!
Low Impact, High Results, Maximum Fun
This low-impact activity elevates your heart rate and targets key muscle groups. Within minutes, you’ll find yourself breaking a sweat as the dynamic motion engages your entire body.
Promote Joint Health and Longevity
Bouncing delivers the cardiovascular benefits of high-intensity exercise while protecting your knee and ankle joints. Research reveals that exercising on a trampoline reduces approximately 80% of the force exerted on your joints compared to walking or running on pavement.
Protect your joints now and your future self will thank you!
Improve Your Balance
Bouncing can improve both dynamic balance and build muscles key to fall prevention. Dynamic balance is required when walking, climbing stairs, and standing in place. A 2011 study suggested that rebounding on a mini trampoline specifically improved dynamic balance and could therefore help lower the risk of falls as you age.

When you think of the pelvic floor, you may immediately think of pregnancy or the postpartum period. However, pelvic floor strength is crucial for core stability, supporting posture, sexual function, bladder control, and organ function.
A 2018 study indicated that the pelvic floor muscles are extremely engaged in trampoline fitness. Bouncing is a fun way to strengthen your pelvic floor and in turn, support the many functions it is critical to.
