This week’s is a day late due to the holiday yesterday.
Still a pretty quiet time of year but I’ve got a few things to share.
Running:
I know this is out of our neighbourhood, but it’s a good class if you want to learn to run. The Running Room does classes of various kinds, including the popular ‘Learn to Run’ clinic. They teach you everything from proper form to what to wear to how to pace yourself so you finish the race! The High Park (2100 Bloor St. West) location has a clinic starting tomorrow. For information, check out their website.
Dance:
Ever wanted to learn to Tango? Tango by Leeliana has classes at Trinity St. Paul Church (Bloor & Spadina). Beginner classes available several days per week. Contact them for more information and to find out start dates for the next session.
Dovercourt House (805 Dovercourt Rd) offers a large variety of classes, mostly dance. A lot of the classes are suitable for beginners. Check out the list and then contact the instructors for start dates!
Mixed Exercise (Cardio/Weights/Stretching/etc):
Thanks to my co-worker and fellow RMT Tiina for mentioning this one: Best Body Bootcamp is a Toronto-area company that does group fitness classes three times each week in local parks. They run one session in our very own Christie Pits! They start you out with a fitness assessment and teach you about healthy eating along with the fitness classes. For more info, check their website. Next session starts in a few weeks.
As always, there are drop-in classes available at fitness studios around the neighbourhood. Check out their websites for more information (and also see last week’s list!).
If you know of a fitness-related event taking place in our neighbourhood, drop me a line and I’ll add it to next week’s roundup!
