I heard that the Wanderlust Yoga Festival sold out before many of you could sign up – and I’m so sorry to hear that! But as luck would have it, I was just invited to another all-day fitness event in the NYC area this weekend – the Apogee Fitness Conference. Tis the season for getting in shape!
Apogee is a fitness company that provides both business and technology solutions for the fitness industry. Their website has a library of fitness videos that you can purchase which then stay in the cloud for you to watch anytime, anywhere – perfect when you’re constantly on the road like I am. Most workouts seem to be $9.99, which is pretty reasonable, and they list what equipment is needed right on the workout homepage before you buy.
However, what Apogee contacted me to discuss was not the video library, but a cool in-person event in NYC! This weekend, from June 6-8, Apogee is hosting their biannual three-day fitness conference. According to their website, the goal is “to allow participants to experience, educate, and engage with fitness experts, professionals and enthusiasts.” The first two days are focused on workshops for professionals (which is a great way to learn more in addition to networking with other fitness pros). The third day, though, is open to all and features a full day of awesome workouts – kind of like the Workout in the Park event I went to a few weeks back.
But unlike Workout in the Park, which had short 20-minute classes, Apogee is featuring full 45-minute classes – so participants should really come prepared to sweat! Since I just ran my last marathon of the season yesterday (race report for Vermont coming Wednesday, race report for San Diego coming Friday!), I’m looking for ways to motivate myself to do marathon-length workouts on the weekend. This seems like a great bet to get me working out for hours but having fun while doing it! I love getting to try all kinds of different workouts, and I’m particularly excited for all the options that Apogee is offering. Check out this great schedule:
As a special bonus for 50by25 readers, Apogee provided me with a discount code to share with all of you. All-Access Workout passes retail for $99.99, but are currently on sale for $49.99. That’s already a pretty great deal, but if you use my discount code of apogee201350, you’ll get an additional 50% off – meaning you get a full day of classes (up to nine 45-minute classes) for just $25. Compared to the normal $32 price of just one boutique fitness class in NYC, this is an amazing deal!
Anyone else want to come with me? I haven’t figured out my exact schedule of classes to take yet, but it seems like there’s plenty to choose from. I’m looking forward to packing some protein bars and going all day 🙂
