Hit The Club
If you like to work out and you like to party, but you don’t want your party to negate your workout, read on: Denver recently became the first U.S. city to launch an almost laughably counterintuitive concept called Fitness Clubbing. Thanks to Bulgarian-born DJ Darina Miteva, all you night-owl club-goers can get your freak on—alcohol-free—while you burn your calories off. Will it catch on? You be the judge.
First Timer: One-hour, instructor-led cardio sessions are fueled by high-energy music. Pick a theme like turbo kick or Zumba. Mon, Wed, Fri–Sat, 4-9:30 p.m.
Feeling Wild: Club nights—all the fun of clubbing into the wee hours (think dance and electronic DJ remixes and laser light shows) minus the booze. Fri–Sat, 10 p.m.-2 a.m.
Dress Code: Yoga pants and sneakers (“fitness casual”).
Try it: 1770 Sherman St., fitnessclubbing.net, $5-$20 drop in, $96-$196/month unlimited.
