6. Shine Hot Pilates + Sculpt Studio
- Best for Music Lovers
Does a good playlist make or break your workout? We can relate (we once walked out of a spin class that started the workout with Nickelback). Music is the heart of soul of this workout that started as a hot Pilates studio and evolved into much more than that. The room is heated to 90 degrees and moving to the beat of the music will almost make you forget you are working out. It’s that fun. Need to target a certain area? The hot arms, abs + assets class is a must try. Drop in classes are $30 and a 10-class packages is $250.
8061 Walnut Hill Ln #914 (The Hill) or 3105 Reagan Street (Uptown)
- Best for Those Who Like to See and Be Seen
What started as a pop up of a curated collection of coveted workout brands, evolved into a permanent storefront that hosts some of the most exciting classes in town. And while the schedule isn’t set, keeping a close eye on Sette Collective’s social media is a sure way to snag a spot at these classes taught by guest coaches. Our favorite? Anything with Lauren Purvis of Solo Body. Feel. The. Burn. Then shop for fire fitness attire after. It’s definitely a win win. Prices of guest coach classes vary.
4438 McKinney Avenue Suite 200
- Best for Tennis Lovers
Last but definitely not least, this new tennis workout has taken East Dallas and beyond by storm. It’s 50 percent hit and 50 percent tennis, resulting in no standing around. This class accommodates all tennis levels and the only requirement is for you to bring a racquet and a mat. (And even if you don’t have that, you can rent them at the pro shop if needed.) The first class is only $15 and guaranteed to be your new addiction. All classes are located at the Samuell Grand Tennis Center.
