As October’s chill settles in, it’s the perfect time to revamp your playlists and bring seasonal flair to every fitness class. From high-energy classes to calming yoga flows, VIBES helps you set the tone for every genre and mood. Whether you’re leading an active aging class, coaching a strength-based workout, or guiding a peaceful tai chi session, here are some playlist ideas to inspire and energize.
How about our new artist collections too?
Start with the incredible sounds of David Garrett and The Piano Guys, who skillfully merge pop with classical. Garrett’s violin covers of rock and pop classics like Smooth Criminal bring a unique edge, while The Piano Guys’ imaginative renditions of songs like A Thousand Years mix classical and contemporary influences, perfect for yoga or cool-down sessions.
Add tracks from Luke Bryan or Thomas Rhett to your warm-up or strength playlists for some country energy. Their upbeat tunes and storytelling lyrics set a motivating, feel-good tone ideal for various classes. Country’s relaxed yet engaging beats provide a grounding soundtrack that resonates well, especially in community-centered fitness spaces.
And for pure pop nostalgia, throw in hits from the Spice Girls, Carly Rae Jepsen, or will.i.am. The infectious hooks from Wannabe or Call Me Maybe bring lighthearted energy to high-intensity or dance workouts, infusing classes with fun, sing-along moments that encourage everyone to let loose.
