Class Review: Hip Box @ Equinox Soho {instructor Steve Feinberg}

2011 September 6
by Jess

Class: Hip Box
Class Location: Equinox Soho
Instructor: Steve Feinberg
Class Description: A ”fusion” workout where the premise is to look like you are boxing but feel like you are dancing.

Favorite things about the class:

  1. Works all muscle groups – arms, core, legs, and no equipment needed!
  2. You are always moving…DANCING rather! There is absolutely no looking at the clock wondering, “how much longer until this is over?”
  3. Incredible way to shake up your work-out routine, it is truly a unique class and like no other routine out there.

Least favorite things about the class:

  1. It is only offered once per week, Equinox should expand this.
  2. Sometimes it is hard to keep up with the advanced combinations that involve punches, dips, rolls, etc (but everyone does get the hang of it!)

Additional Comments: Old and new-school hip hop serves as the soundtrack during sweat-drenched class that works not only on muscular strength/endurance, but also agility and coordination. The great thing is that instructor Steve Feinberg makes both experienced boxers and novices that have never thrown a punch in their life feel welcome and challenged in this class. If you are the type that likes to have FUN and not even realize you are enduring a hardcore workout, this class is for you.

Over all Class Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
