trampoLEAN

I have been taking this class every week for more than a year now and I’m still trilled! It gives you a very complete work out, it has a tremendous detox power, it’s fun, energetic and liberate your mind… Nothing can beat that! And Louis is also technically very competent and extremely caring.

I am not the most coordinated person, so going into this class I was very worried that I would look like an idiot and fall off the trampoline. Not the case. This class can work for all levels of coordination and I have yet to see anyone fall off the trampoline in the several classes I have attended. The location inside DANY Studios is confusing at first, but after attending class once you get the drill.
The instructor, Louis, starts you off with some basic jumping, so you can get a feel for the space on the trampoline. Then you go through a series of various jumping patterns including high knees, twists, squats, etc. At several points during the class you get off the trampoline to do other exercises such as push-​ups or sit-​ups. Around the perimeter for the trampoline are several colored bungee cords that are used for resistance during leg lifts. In some classes hand weights are provided to intensify the workout. I believe there are different versions of the class that target various parts of the body.
TrampoLEAN is a unique class that I have not been able to find anywhere else. Is this something I would want to do everyday? No, but it is something I enjoy throwing into my workout routine occasionally.

I don’t think the TrampoLEAN workout is for me, but that’s not to say it’s not fun. It’s definitely a nice change of pace from your normal gym workouts, and let me say, I was definitely SORE the next day. Possibly too sore… one of my legs hurt way more than the other, and I worried that I might have strained something. That’s my one complaint with TrampoLEAN… trampoline cardio is unusual (at least, for me), and I would have appreciated a little bit more personal attention in making sure that I wasn’t doing anything wrong. The instructor spent most of the time on the trampoline in front, which is helpful for copying his motions, but not so much in getting feedback. He did give a lot of options for simplifying motions, which was nice, but I found that I wasn’t even sure if I was doing stuff right, so it was hard to tell when I needed to simplify. I think if you committed to coming weekly, you could probably get technique down pretty well. But for a drop-​in student, I would maybe look elsewhere.
Other notes:
–class size was pretty large… I would say about 20 students, all women.
–the location at DANY studios is a little weird. To get in, you have to buzz a doorbell outside an unmarked red door, and then the waiting area is a little bizarre… the only thing to tell you you’re waiting in the right place is the stack of trampolines outside one of the doors.
–if you do come, bring a friend! I feel like a lot of this would have been more fun with a buddy.
–the instructor was very nice, made an effort to meet everyone in the classroom, and definitely had the high-​energy and enthusiasm I need in a class. I just wish that I had gotten some feedback from him!

I was very interested in taking Trampolean! However, I was disappointed with a lot of it.
There was no demo for beginners. In fact, the instructor didnt ask if anybody is new. I definitely hurt myself a few times not knowing exactly what to do, especially my knees and wrists. If you are concerned about form and avoiding injury, I’d really think this through.
If you are an expert Trampoline athlete, then you might do just fine! Every body in the class who were regulars were doing very well, so I want to point that out. It’s just for me, being a newby, I didn’t have a good experience.

Amazing workout that had me out of breath and drenched in sweat. The class went by really fast because it was so fun and different than the ordinary workout. I’d recommend this to anyone looking to get some awesome cardio and toning work into their routine in such a fun way!

My only complaint is that I never wanted the class to end!

I was a little skeptical about a trampoline class as I kept getting visions of 80’s spandex workout videos in my head, but let me tell you this — it is an intensive cardio workout. I wanted to try something different from spin class and boxing which I take at times at my gym.
Louis is very clear with his instruction of the class and explains everything step-​by-​step. I like instructors who clearly demo what you need to be doing and then show you what needs to be done. I’m in pretty good shape and stay active and found his class to be challenging. Others in the class were not on my level and Louis was patient and encouraging. He worked with everyone and didn’t get pushy or annoying.
The space is busy and nice. The class was full, but not packed and we had plenty of space for the trampolines. They have a changing room for men and women. It’s equipped with showers, but I didn’t use them. Definitely bring a towel and change of clothes as you will work up a sweat and burn calories.

I was more than thrilled to try this new TrampoLEAN Class at Chelsea Piers.
The trampoline exercises were rigorous but definitely beneficial. That’s a MUST TRY class this winter season to keep you warm. It is an intense cardio class that will satisfy even the biggest «cardioholics.» I love to give my all when I train and this class suits all my cardio needs. Surprisingly the trampoline itself it’s a great tool for a workout. It helps building balance and works all my muscle, especially with additional dumbbells and barefoot! Bonus — the music in the class is great too! I would definitely suggest the class if you are trying to get in shape quick! We all know — cardio is the only way to drop some serious pounds and with the trampoline class it’s s a no brainer.
Louis is an amazing trainer and teacher. I have learned so much from him over past few sessions, like right exercising techniques, the way of eating and leisure. He is a great guy.

Don’t think because its a trampoline its all fun n play… This class will whoop your ass!
The full body hour is really intense focusing on your core, arms, glutes and entire body !
Louise is great at keeping you motivated and correct you when your not in proper form. Being on a trampline makes you unstable therefore your muscles work harder to keep you stable.
I thought i was gonna die about 2xs and asked myself why would anyone pay to get tortured !!! … With that being said… i will be back next week.
If you think you got this workout thing down-​packed… This class will have you second guessing lol
Its great

I was so curious about trampolean! There were no reviews. So I’m first I guess. Just some fyi’s– this studio is in a huge facility with lots of rooms for what seems to be other dance/​fitness classes. You do this workout barefoot (wish I got the memo so I could’ve gotten a pedicure prior, lol).
I’ve taken many trampoline classes before. In fact I was so hooked on the ones I used to take at world gym in nj that I actually bought my own trampoline and was using it at home. Lately I’m a regular at barry’s bootcamp, tonehouse, exceed, etc. I’m looking for a challenging workout. I didn’t find this to be challenging enough and I barely sweat, whereas with the trampoline classes I used to take everyone was drenched in sweat at the end. I ‘m really trying to get serious about losing 7 pounds, so I’m really looking for more challenging workouts. I thought it was ok and I might do it again, maybe if I need a lighter day workout.
