I recently vacationed in Wrightsville Beach and Wilmington, and going, I booked a Cycle class with Bevin at Recess. Even though I have never done a spin class before, I wanted to sign up for a few reasons, 1) the women from the Drama Queens podcast recommended it, 2) I always tell myself I'll workout on vacation and never do, so if I booked a class I knew I would, 3) I wanted to try something different.
I didn't know what to expect, as I normally only do workouts at home so that I don't feel self-conscious or judged if I'm not as coordinated as other folks. But I'm so glad I decided to sign up for a class at Recess -- it was an awesome experience. Bevin is an incredible instructor, plays amazing music during the class and let me go at my own pace, And even though I had to rest a few times, I never felt judged or self-conscious. She told us if we had to rest, to just dance it out while doing so, and that's what I did! Now, I'm not going to lie, spinning is hard! But it was such a fun, energizing class, and I can't thank Bevin and her team enough for all of their encouragement and kindness. I ended up taking the Cycle and Flow class a few days later with Samantha Ray, who is also a fabulous instructor and I loved that class too.
If you are ever in Wilmington, I highly recommend signing up for classes at Recess during your stay, it's so much fun! They have a fan for life here in Chicago!! read more
