Mojo Buzz
Cindy Brauer, founder of Mojo Fitness, a studio in Wayne, Pa., moved her dance-based workouts to a nearby amphitheater. There’s enough space to go maskless and blast music. She set the original temperature limit at 40 degrees, but recently dropped it to 33.
“It feels like I’m playing a game of limbo with our community. How cold can they go?” Ms. Brauer says. With December classes still drawing 25 to 30 people, she wonders if “Polar-style Mojo” might have a future beyond the pandemic.
Despite the dropping temperatures, a Malvern woman’s popular dance workouts continue to attract fitness enthusiasts to Wilson Farm Park in Chesterbrook, writes Caroline O’Halloran for SAVVY Main Line.
Cindy Brauer, founder of Mojo Fitness, had to move workouts to the park’s amphitheater when the pandemic forced her to cancel in-person classes.
She thought she would be able to teach there until October or early November at best. But well into December 2020, Mojo’s “HIIT Hop in the Park” workouts are not slowing down. HIIT stands for high-intensity interval training.
It’s chilly, the wind is picking up, and the sun is fading.
Time to start dinner or curl up by the fire.
Not for the women warriors of Mojo Fitness.
When the pandemic forced Mojo founder Cindy Brauer to move her popular dance workouts to the Wilson Farm Park amphitheater in Tredyffrin, she thought she’d teach there until October, early November, tops.

Online Dance Workouts: The Best Dance Cardio Classes.
Although Mojo Fitness provides fitness dance classes, the emphasis is not on perfecting a specific dance technique. You will learn the proper form for certain exercises to prevent injury, but the cardio dance class can be individualized by completing the movements at a different pace or adjusting the range of movement and intensity. You should feel to develop your own dance style, too. When you’re jamming out to popular songs, you’ll feel what Mojo Fitness is “more like a dance club experience than a dance class.”
