I'd never been back in this industrial part of town, so it seems like Focus Fitness has picked a…read moregood spot to set up their pilates studio, as it's smack next door to the new Lower.com MLS soccer field and in the heart of an up and coming pocket just west of downtown Columbus. I'm not sure how FF's parking works exactly, as the spac parking lot's spaces are numbered - is that a pre-development heyday thing, or what?
Want to highlight the awesome viby house music playing. The space is small, but houses a lot of cool looking contraptions/pilates machines; I'd love to learn their intricate purposes in an in-depth class! Anna, one of the instructors, greeted us and told us about Focus Fitness and how things are done around here. Things are done a bit different here: Instead of classes, they run private or semi-private times with clients/members as opposed to a general schedule of classes offered, you show up, do a workout and leave. Anna also specializes in nutrition, which is exactly what I've been searching for.
Official first time in a salt spa! Three of us sat in the room for the recommended 30 minutes, which is basically equal to two days at the beach. Nice reclining beach chairs, so you can get comfy when you breath in the salt-filtered air. No ambient music playing, not sure if they don't have it playing for a purpose, which could be the case. This room is used for salt room yoga, so perhaps an instructor comes in with you, thus that's your form of sound. If there isn't music any set up, maybe a suggestions for clients that just want to sit and not do yoga. Just a thought, however. Two of the three recliners have heating properties, fyi.
This was such an awesome event!! Completely informal, relaxed and totally hands on!! We literally were encouraged to try out whatever equipment that peaked out interest, and Anna and Dina gladly demonstrated telling the benefits. Dina is a spunky esthetician, and I'd totally get a consult with her!!
Excellent event, giant thanks to Kayla for setting this one up!!
