group classes
Shared instruction sessions
Group classes are fitness or instructional sessions conducted with multiple participants rather than one-on-one.
The term appears most often in gym contexts: The membership includes unlimited group classes.
Yoga, spinning, aerobics, and dance are typical offerings.
The format contrasts with personal training, trading individual attention for community energy and lower cost.
