Three mornings a week at 8:30 am, the women (and occasional men) of Muscle Dance participate in a strength training ritual with Aruna. This is not a boot camp. It’s a more rarified form of weight lifting. It’s all about proper form and, frankly if it weren’t for the community of wonderful women, the jokes, and the music  (everything from chanting, to rock and roll, the blues and “drums of pain.”), it would be a lot harder to endure.
