I'll be the first to comment! I just moved here looking for a place to work out. I'm not one to love cardio and I was intentionally trying to find a weightlifting gym. I've never tried spin and I'm so glad I ran into Aaron's page on FB! I've been coming here for 3 weeks doing free classes (he is building his business) and it's been so much fun. For someone to not know ANYONE in TX other than my own family, it feels good to come here & meet new people that work just as hard as you on the bike!
So if you are just starting-
For me being new, finding the place was fine. I had to slow down because there are 2 entrances but he has a banner out in front saying Drenched. I guess it was kind of challenging for me bc I go at 5:30a or 6a class and it's still dark out. Lol
When I first walked in there it seemed as if people were already comfortable with one another.. but the instructor Aaron welcomes you with open arms. 10 bikes available. He teaches you the basics of spin & reassures you that you go at your own pace until you get the hang of it. Aaron has DJ lighting & turns off all the lights during the ride but you can still see your way around just in case you need to get off and leave or use the restroom. He provides towels just in case you forget yours. But I recommend to bring your own towel AND water! He has wipes to wipe down the bike before and after. After the ride, he closes off with stretching.
The music for his classes are generally hip hop, pop, & sometimes rock.
Warning: his music can be explicit but I personally don't mind. I actually like it better that way lol. So this is your FAIR warning. Lol
You will be doing some choreography on the bikes. They are not hard but also not simple. The music is there for you to stay on beat. So that means.. pedal pedal pedal!
Times for the classes are pretty basic. Early morning, morning time, lunch hour and night classes. To make things easier it's best to download the app.
You will leave this class DRENCHED. Have not tried HIIT with Drenched yet, but once I do.. I'll be back to leave a review :)
Thank You Aaron & Drenched Team! Having a great time with spin class & finding a new hobby!
- also for you heavy hitters: I'm more on the heavy side for women.. my knees are horrible from sports growing up but with spin It's not doing any damage to my knees. They're feeling great! read more
