aerobics class

Fitness session together

An aerobics class is a group fitness session featuring rhythmic exercise set to music, typically led by an instructor.

Participants perform choreographed movements—jumping, stepping, stretching—designed to elevate heart rate and improve cardiovascular endurance: I go to aerobics class three times a week.

The format peaked in popularity during the 1980s but remains a gym staple.
