Spoke [N] Spin Studio

Fitting in fitness at home is hard enough (ok that’s a lie as I live in gyms and can teach numerous fitness formats) but when traveling for work it’s almost impossible. Small hotel gyms with dated/​broken equipment is pretty common. I was prepping for a pretty dull workout over the next two days. Instead I found this awesome fitness studio!
Spoke [N] Spin is a hidden gem. It’s tucked inside an Aloft hotel on a not so-​pretty-​street lined with mid range lodging chains. I’m not certain how its linked to this SPG property (I also don’t really care). You use MindBody to sign up and pay; you don’t pay through the hotel. It’s boutique fitness pricing ($ 20 a class, they do packages). They offer a few classes a day. Spinning and TRX!!! Combined. Tonight I took a 50 min spin and TRX shoulders and core class. They also do spin/​yoga and spin\trx lower body classes. This wasn’t a fitness-​light class for the inexperienced (beginners are welcome and you can take at your own pace). It was a challenging ride that ended with 15 min of TRX pull ups, pushups, planks and other ab work. LOVE! Space has a kick-​ass sound system and it set up like the usual spin studio. The have bikes/​straps for twenty. The only downfall of this place is that there is no ventilation. The air is stale and thick. Other than that I wish there was a 6 am class I could take tomorrow morning!
