My goal this year is to try new workout locations in Elk Grove. This is hard for me because I love exercising outside and I tend to be cheap when it comes to memberships. But I think this is going to be great challenge for me and then I can be the test dummy for you!
This week I got to try out Switch Fitness on Elk Grove Blvd. It is located behind Taco Bell and it’s a hidden gem! You walk into a very clean and inviting environment making you feel comfortable and excited to try the class. There are two rooms, cubbies and even personal showers.
I took the Barre class on Sunday and it was amazing! Hard but amazing! Barre focuses on using your own weight by doing squats, lunges and sit ups. The instructor was sweet and helped me figure out what equipment I needed. This class was my favorite even though I couldn’t walk for two days…
The other class I took was Candlelit Yin Yoga. The instructor brought in fresh lavender and they supplied soft blankets. The class entailed stretching for 2-3 minutes per stretch then afterwards we laid in our warm blankets. I didn’t want to leave! I feel like this class was way harder for me than the Barre class because I have trouble turning my thoughts off. I will have to come to this class several times to master that!
Switch Fitness offers many classes with many time options. Heated Yoga, Bootcamp, Piloxing, Barre, and PiYo are just a few. A new class called “Fit For Life” has become popular for older and younger people. This workout is a low impact class with light weights and no floor time. It’s great for people with limited mobility. All class times range from 5am- 7:00pm.
Their website is very easy to manage and see what classes are available. Once you find your class, you rsvp for it and you are in! Right now they are offering a $49 deal for the whole month. Unlimited classes which is a great deal! After that you have the option to purchase a monthly membership, class packages or drop in. There is a military and teacher discount as well.
