As I’m getting older, my physical health has bubbled up as a big priority… one that requires attention. Consistent attention. A friend invited me to workout with her using a new subscription service. I’m typically not a fan of subscription services, so I was skeptical. But I’m so glad I pushed through and tried anyway!! Classpass has been exciting, challenging, and a huge shift in my physical body!
What is Classpass? It’s a service that lets you take classes at hundreds of different gyms in your area with just one signup, and zero pressure! I always disliked the 30 minute pressure talk I’d get going into a new gym before they’d even let me work out! None of this with Classpass! Most places you just click the button that you are there and sign their waiver. That’s it. Friendly people, I’ve been to at least 12 different studios in the last 6 weeks, have only been greeted warmly and zero pressure to join any of them.
How does it work? Signup and you get credits. The $9 plan ($30 off with my link) gets you 21 credits that you can spend however & at whatever studio you want, this month.
If you dont like details, skip to the next paragraph! If you do, read on… For example, I like Yoga for example; I limited my studio search to just Plano, Allen, and Richardson and 7 studios come up. They range in points per class, from only 1 point up to 6 points. As you’d expect a big box place like Golds Yoga is only 1-2 points. Yoga Chikitsa, a cute little studio at Collins & Campbell is only 2 points (been there 3 times already!), Krav Yoga 2-3, Vibe Yoga 3, The Yoga Factory 4, Yogafit 5, Gaia Flow 6 points. This means you could visit 6 of these 7 your first month, if you want to try a bunch of different places.
Each studio lists their classes, most have a fairly detailed description. If you want a relaxation yoga class, to help you unwind and de-stress, then pick that one. If you want a “power” exercise sweat yoga, then you can choose that instead!
You can visit a studio up to 3 times per month, without the points increasing.
If you love pilates toys, like I do, visit the studios that have reformers, chairs, towers, etc. BodyBar fitness is Amazing (pick a class with Dena) and varies in points, I always book when they are 3-4 points. Studio6 also has 4 point Reformer and Reformer lite classes (if you havent done it before, this is a very good first class).
The idea is to make exercise enjoyable again! Be in a space that motivates you to be your best self! I’ve noticed my body and my attitude change these past 2 months!! Do it for yourself!
Barre classes are another fun, low impact exercise that I’ve tried several times. Barre3 in Richardson is always 4 points, Barre3 in Plano is 5. Barre Code is 4. So you could do 5 barre classes, or of course, mix the classes up. That’s what I do.
I don’t want to commit to one specialized gym, as I love yoga and barre and reformer, so this is a plan that is perfect for me! They have cycling and crossfit and boxing and tons of other stuff to try too. Oh BTW, I did a surfboard class last Saturday – that was a hoot! 😉 If you want to give it try, it is only $9. If you want to cancel, just do it 3 days before it renews. I’m actually paying full price my second month, so that shows you how much I truly like it. 😉 Use my link to get your first month for only $9. http://class.ps/lO9va
Love & Light & Amazing Health too,
