Shred

“THERE IS NO GREATER FORCE FOR CHANGE THAN PEOPLE INSPIRED TO LIVE A BETTER LIFE”


We at Metamorphosis are idealists that forever believe in pushing ourselves to be better and stronger. Each new day presents a new challenge & the chance to become our best self. At Metamorphosis, knowledgeable trainers & a heart-pumping Pilates-inspired workout will take your mind & body to the point where change happens. We all desire change... we all crave transformation... and whether we are ready for it... we all NEED change! 

The Morph Shred workout is based on the principles of Pilates and combined with elements of circuit training. The workout incorporates strength, resistance & cardio which makes your Shred workouts efficient & effective! Shred will leave you drenched in sweat, burning fat & calories (up to 500-800 calories), with elongated muscles & improved endurance in a blink of an eye... only 45 minutes! 

Morph Shred classes use a modern Pilates reformer. You will move seamlessly & quickly from one exercise to the next to maintain a higher heart rate which will improve your cardivascular system and build lean muscle and strength. Morph Shred workouts incorporate both strength and cardio training allowing the body to move with an effective and greater intensity while staying low impact on the joints… you will quiver, you will sweat, you will have fun and you will Morph to be your absolute strongest version. Our motto is Be Extra, Do Morph!

*Join us for in-studio Shred classes at our Pasadena location (18 reformers). Visit our Los Feliz location for in-studio Shred classes (13 reformers). Our first East Coast location in Brooklyn offers Shred classes (16 reformers). At each location there is continuous airflow throughout the studio to keep you healthy & safe during your workouts.

RUN & SHRED

“PRACTICE IS THE HARDEST PART OF LEARNING, AND TRAINING IS THE ESSENCE OF TRANSFORMATION”


Are you ready to say hello to a new you? A happier, stronger, more focused you? If you had the chance to live longer as this 'new you' would you take the opportunity? If you exercise consistently you probably already know that working out makes you feel better... but there's nothing like a runner's high. Studies show that running for 30 minutes a day can improve your mood instantly and reduce the risk of diabetes, high blood pressure, and some cancers. Running increases bone mass and even aids with age-related bone loss and helps with overall brain function as we age. 

The Morph Run & Shred program is designed to help you become fit, gain confidence, and feel happier. Our running coaches will teach you about form, breathing, and all the benefits of running. Each workout will combine running drills to improve Endurance, Speed, and power so your body gains strength in different ways and your muscles are constantly being stimulated. We offer our hybrid *Run & Shred class which focus on 25 minutes of endurance, speedwork, or hill work on our Woodway 4Front treadmills and 25 minutes of strength training using our custom Morph reformers. The Woodway treads make you feel like your running on clouds due to their spring-loaded track making it easy on your knees and joints. Morph Run & Shred classes are the medicine you need to help you feel less stressed, happier, and burn 400-1000 calories per class. Run (or walk) with us and improve the quality of your emotional, physical, and mental being!
