Virtual Group Fitness
Virtual Group Fitness at the JCC is with Les Mills, the world-renowned expert in creating safe, science-based, progressive group fitness formats and instructors, has spent over a decade mastering the Virtual setting for health clubs to offer on-site. With their mission to “Create a Fitter Planet” and commitment to “Bring the best music, moves, and instructors together to create life-changing fitness shaped by science”, we surely endorse that and more here at the J.
Our first commitment to a Group Fitness class is with a live instructor. Alongside nearly 40-live classes with the best instructors in town, we are thrilled to infill time and offerings around these classes with a new on-site Virtual Program.
How Les Mills Virtual Works

Health & Fitness For Youth & Teens
We hope to soon offer live settings with our Professional Instructor Team. Until then, we can now offer our Youth and Teen Community movement-based settings designed specifically to these ages through Les Mills “Born To Move” Virtual: You will find these classes offered in our Club-J Youth Program curriculum, and also on our Group Fitness schedule per specific age ranges. See below the three formats, descriptions of their focus, and a video showing a sample class.
For your young fitness enthusiast to take a class:
All BORN TO MOVE™ (BTM) participants will have a parent complete and sign a one-time Liability Waiver to take these Group Fitness classes.
This waiver can be accessed HERE or at the JCC Front or Fitness Desk.
The completed waiver will be kept with our Health & Fitness Team for reference as needed and is only required to be kept on file with our Health & Fitness Staff.
Any BTM participants under the age of 14 must have a parent walk to the room for the pre-scheduled timeslot, support them in getting acclimated, and ensure they treat the space and others who may be joining appropriately. Parents must stay on-site in case your BTM participant needs support during the class.
The video screen will start and end automatically at the designated day/ time the class is scheduled.
Please be sure to clean up after participation for the next class of participants.
