The studio offers six different types of spin classes from any one of their 11 top-rated instructors. The amount of different kinds of spin classes provided is a feature that you will not find in any other gym around you. Additionally, they offer classes as early as 6:30 in the morning meaning whether you work in an Aventura virtual office or an Aventura executive suite these classes are a sure way to start your workday off on the right foot.
Working out on a consistent basis will give you a positive outlook on work and the energy you need to make it through the day. So no matter what gym you end up choosing it is essential to remember that at the very least you are getting out, exercising, and improving your physical and mental health.
