Ok. ZOUK!!!! It has to be the new trend! It must become the new trend. I am totally in love with…read morethis dance and if you start taking lessons you will also be. The good thing is that they take you easy through the basics. NO PREVIOUS DANCING SKILLS NEEDED. Just a will to learn and have fun. The placement of the dance studio is perfect. Torgata is close to the tram, train and in the middle of the centre. Easy to combine your shopping, dinner or whatever with the evening dance lesson. Apart from that it's a nice studio. Has plenty of light as it has lots of windows. It's on the 4th floor so no people passing by will begin to stare. The teachers are nice, patient and funny. I have also met a lot of people. The best of all is that after the dancing courses there is also a social event where all levels of zouk can come to dance. Wow! Such a good vibe and a great mix of nationalities and people. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for a fun activity. PS: 8 times - 2 months - 700 nok (quite cheap for norway)

Spin class was awesome! Vero Hero is the instructor extraordinaire!…read more This gym was so accommodating for me, allowing me to buy a drop-in visit being that I was only in town for the weekend. (They also offer student discounts, so bring your ID if you've got it.) I was able to ask about available spin classes and they cued me into a Friday afternoon class with Vero. I've dropped in on classes around the world, but Vero is now my favorite instructor. She was knowledgeable, motivating, and energetic, and her class design was challenging and stimulating. She mixed in a little bit of fun and choreography to keep you having fun, but in actuality her class was focused on resistance, endurance, and occasional sprints - so you're actually training for athletic gains (which probably translate to a bicycle), and not just burning calories dancing on an indoor bike. The music was great and aligned very well with the recommended efforts! That takes time to plan. The equipment provided was great too. The studio is crafted with a large screen to allow you to assess your wattage and relative effort with real-time feedback in reference to all others in the class, including the instructor. The bikes were quality (with Stages power meters), the spacing was ample (so that you are not on top of your neighbor), and the lighting was good (not so bright as to blind you but not complete darkness). I recommend this gym, this spin studio, and taking Vero's class if you live here or you're visiting and you love indoor cycling.
