Fitness World launches new fitness class format: MSINGI™ with a series of Free Outdoor Classes in Vancouver this summer
17 Julio 2024 - 11:55AM
Fitness World Canada has launched a brand new fitness class format
MSINGI™, which will be featured for the first time
publicly as part of Canada Place’s Summer Series of free outdoor
exercise classes, held at the iconic waterfront North Point
location.
MSINGI, created by international fitness specialist Ingrid
Knight-Cohee, is a unique blend of fitness fundamentals with a
rhythmic and dynamic fusion of movements, all set to soul-stirring
Afro beats. The first class of the summer series took place on
Tuesday, July 16th, and drew a robust crowd of fitness enthusiasts.
The free energizing class series will continue every Tuesday until
August 27th, inviting individuals of all ages and fitness
backgrounds to experience the new MSINGI fitness class format.
Classes take place from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm (PST), so participants
can sweat it out while taking in the stunning waterfront evening
views.
“The MSINGI Afro Movements Summer Series is the perfect way for
individuals to be introduced to this new class format that is both
uplifting for the mind and healthy for the body,” said
Ingrid Knight-Cohee, Director of Fitness Classes at Fitness
World Canada. “I hope this program will not only be a fun,
active event for the warm season, but also a gateway for
individuals to fall in love with daily exercise.”
Inspired by her time in Nairobi, Kenya, Knight-Cohee created a
unique fusion of African-inspired functional, primal, and mobility
movements set to infectious, soul-stirring beats- ultimately
pioneering the MSINGI class. While this format has been exclusively
enjoyed by Fitness World members since September 2023, Ingrid is
now bringing MSINGI to Canada Place and inviting the wider
Vancouver community to explore a new way to actively move the
body.
“We are thrilled to partner with Fitness World Canada to bring
such a unique and dynamic fitness event to our annual summer
series,” said Claire Sivley, Manager, External Events &
Guest Experience at Canada Place. “We have been running
our free fitness classes for over 10 years, and we
know that MSINGI will be a great addition to the series. We hope
everyone comes down to enjoy working out together, all while
getting an epic view of the Vancouver harbour.”
The partnership with Fitness World Canada and Canada Place goes
hand in hand with both of the organizations’ aligned commitment to
serving its communities and creating opportunities for the
community to come together. These free classes will open the floor
to learning a new and exciting exercise concept while fostering
connection with fellow participants. This marks the beginning of
the two organizations' partnered efforts, as both continue to
explore opportunities to improve the wellbeing of the Vancouver
community.
