Welcome to Fly Factor!
Come fly with us! Drop in and take off with the only bungee fitness classes offered in Greensboro, North Carolina. What is bungee fitness? Bungee classes are a high-flying fusion of fun and fitness. The experience is high intensity, low impact, weight bearing and gravity defying. Get the benefits of resistance training and strength building while the bungee reduces stress on your joints and adds a spring to your step. This workout is a full body workout head to tail, fingers to toes. Bungee fitness classes will build a strong core and stable connections between the upper and lower body and increase balance and general stability. At Fly Factor, we help you to elevate your workout!
What to Expect
Upon arrival at the studio, an instructor will greet you in the lobby, get you checked in and review the required intake forms. For safety purposes Fly Factor instructors must be made aware of any health matters that might affect your experience in the bungee, including your accurate weight, waist and thigh measurements. This private information is only used in pairing participants with the proper size gear for the safest and most fun experience possible. Your instructor will teach you how to wear the harness, assist you in locking into the bungee, and at the beginning of class we will go over a few safety checks.
The gear fitting process may take 10-15 minutes at the start of class. With safety checks complete, it’s time to fly! Your instructor will begin the class up with movement sequences designed to help students get to know the feel and pull of the bungee while warming up the muscles. Once you’re warm, the class will start to really take off as we work up to soaring, leaping and diving through the air. The 45 minute class will include plenty of opportunities for water breaks, and you’ll need them!
All classes at this time will include introductory elements, and the intensity and level of difficulty can be tailored to the needs of the participants. As our business grows, and as you grow with us, we look forward to offering a wide range of unique bungee class levels and aerial specialties. For more details about the bungee experience, please reach out to Fly Factor directly. We are happy to tell you more! Please email Carrie Plew at flyfactorllc@gmail.com.
