There is an area with tablets so that you can quickly self check-in … [Read more...]

As a busy, work-at-home mom, there are days where I just don’t have time to get to the gym to workout.

Posted on August 10, 2014 | Filed Under: Fitness | Tags: Barry’s Bootcamp, ClassPass, Sherman Oaks fitness studio | Leave a Comment

The following post contains affiliate links. All opinions are 100% my own. A couple of weeks ago, I took my very first class at Barry’s Bootcamp in Sherman Oaks. I’ve taken bootcamp classes before but not at this fitness studio. I had heard some interesting things about Barry’s, so I thought, why not give it a try! Taking classes at Barry’s Bootcamp (or any other studio in LA) has never been easier because I booked my class through … [Read more...]

Sandbox Fitness: Come Exercise on the Beach in Sherman Oaks!

Posted on July 30, 2014 | Filed Under: Fitness | Tags: Minna Herskowitz, Sandbox Fitness, Sherman Oaks, Stacey Melman, Surfset, TRX, yoga | Leave a Comment

Just last week I was invited to attend classes at Sandbox Fitness in Sherman Oaks. This studio is located on Ventura Blvd, near Woodman Avenue. When you first walk inside the studio, you’ll notice right away the beach-like vibe. Instantly I felt calmer, as being near the ocean always makes me feel more relaxed & centered (even in a faux one such as this).  :) All of the classes are taught in the sandbox. The sand comes from Cal … [Read more...]
