Free Fitness Classes in the Sunset
I was skeptical at first… a free fitness class? They couldn’t possibly have a free class every Tuesday. That just sounds crazy.
Well, it’s true – TruFusion, Pure Barre, lululemon, Dance Dynamics, and Fit4Mom take turns hosting a free class at Downtown Summerlin… on The Lawn… during sunset… overlooking the western mountains.
Yes, it is every bit as beautiful as you’d expect!
It’s called Fitness on the Lawn and it is indeed a full-blown work out session. Expect to be sweating your butt off by the end of it!
I attended TruFusion’s yoga class and was delighted with the turn out and the way they ran it. While teaching, the instructor walks around encouraging the attendants as another instructor is up on a table, very visible to the whole Lawn, doing the moves along with you.
Honestly, if she wasn’t up on the table doing the moves with us, I would have had no clue what I was doing.
Since the class is so large – and it’s outside – the class is more relaxed than other yoga classes I’ve attended. Friends and families of all sizes (even a dog or two) gather on The Lawn to have a good time and chat it up while following along.
Halfway through the session, the sun started it set. There were only a few clouds over the mountains; so the sunset was not as spectacular as I had hoped, but, it was still very beautiful. It felt like something out of a movie!
By the end of the class, the sun was behind the mountains, the lights strung up over The Lawn were on, and DTS was glowing. It was very picturesque, although I apparently didn’t get many clear pictures after my natural light-source had disappeared.
I definitely suggest you check it out. It’s free; it’s fun; and you can bring your dog, what more could you want?!
Like I said, there are different classes every Tuesday 7:30-8:30, from yoga to dance fit to boxing. Check out the schedule for yourself and see which class is right for you!
