Community. Movement. Empowerment.
That’s what WERQ is all about.
Founded by fitness professional Haley Struxness, WERQ is a wildly addictive cardio dance workout built on zero judgement and good vibes only. Alongside our community of WERQaholics, we’ve been shaking up the fitness scene since 2011.
And we’re just getting started.
What is WERQ?
Our WERQouts are designed to give you the best sweat with repetitive athletic moves and fresh dance steps. WERQ instructors build a heart-pumping playlist featuring the hottest pop and hip-hop music. Each week, new choreography is introduced, so you can WERQ the routines you know and have the opportunity to challenge yourself with the ones you’re learning.
