What is calisthenics?
Calisthenics is strength training that uses your own bodyweight. Instead of machines and barbells, you build strength, control and mobility with movements like push-ups, pull-ups, dips, squats and handstands, and work toward skills that take practice to master.
How the NATEFIT calisthenics class works
Each class runs for 60 minutes:
- Warm-up (5 to 10 minutes)
- Introduction and skill learning (10 to 15 minutes): understanding each skill’s mechanics and learning its progressive stages
- Individual skill practice (35 minutes), with extra skill coaching for those who need it
What you get:
- Skill development through hands-on coaching
- Access to the NATEFIT app for additional programming and homework
- Progress tracking to monitor your improvements
Who the calisthenics class is for
Every skill is taught in progressive stages, so you work at the stage that matches your current strength and build from there. Over each 4-week block you practise the foundations of calisthenics, like push-ups, pull-ups, dips and squats, and work toward harder skills such as handstands. Each class has 35 minutes of individual practice, with extra coaching for anyone who needs it, so you get feedback on your own progressions rather than following a group workout.
Between classes, the NATEFIT app gives you extra programming and homework, so you can keep practising during the week and track how each skill improves. The class is coached by Nathaniel Ernst, a Professional Kinesiologist and the owner of NATEFIT.

What clients say
“Despite attending various handstand workshops in the past, I still had not been able to hold a freestanding handstand until a few simple cues Nate gave me… Now I can hold them for 15+ seconds and getting stronger every day.”
“I freaking learned how to backflip on solid ground with NATEFIT!! It was AWESOME!”
