Center 8 studio

[marissab]

Hi. Center 8 Studio- fitness for the mind ,body and spirit.

There is this fabulous home on Calle 42 b/n 5 and 1...right down from the new Arena condos. It was recently be turned into a fitness studio by Tiffany Rothe and it is WONDERFUL!

Tiffany has taught at the Gym for years and before that in LA. She and her husband Bertrand bought the house and made it into a really beautiful fitness facility. Right now its just a few classes - not quite officially opened.

I went to a 930pm meditational class last night and it was really good.

Right now they have 9am classes Mon-Sat
M/W/F is a kickboxing class
T/Th/S is strength training

Kat is starting yoga classes there soon at 8am.

You can pay by the class so it's great for us who just want to drop in occassionally.

She said each class is a little different to keep it interesting.

I will update when I have more info. I'm going to class on Saturday. I've been told you can't walk after taking her classes. I'm scared. But excited.

Anyone want to join me??

- Marissa

My friend Nicole has been taking classes with Tiffany for the past year or so. Glad to hear that her space is now "officially" open. From what I hear, she will really kick your @ss!!! Good luck!!

Thanks for posting this Marissa! This is so close to home. I'm not sure if I'm ready for an @ss kicking workout just yet. Yoga with Kat sounds great though. But 8am!

They are going to start night classes later but for now only early morning classes.

My friends could not walk for 3 days after taking her first class. I'm really scared! I have 3 flights of stairs to walk up to get to my sofa! I may have to camp in the courtyard for a few days afterwards!

However, I'm still going to take the class tomorrow morning!

If anyone sees me on the ground Sunday on 5th (unable to get up myself) Please give me hand and help me back on my feet! Or better yet, pick me up and drive me home!!

[Libby]

Good luck tomorrow morning, Marissa!

To follow up:

Class was hard but extremely fun. First was warm up. Then lots of lunges and squats to work on legs. Then we moved to arm work with hand weights. Then to floor work for the legs (my least favorite part) then situps. It ended with stretching then a tiny meditation to remind us all to think positive thoughts.


All in all it was a great workout that flew by. The excellent music helped. As did the counting down in spanish! I've never counted in spanish in reverse so that kept me focusing on something other than the pain!


Today I can walk and move my arms. Although I am a little sore.

I highly recommend the class.

She is still working on pricing...but I think this is right:
First class is free (that is true)
If you take one class per week it's 100 pesos.
If you take two classes per week it's 170 pesos.
And 3 classes...not sure...


Eventually it will be set up so you can buy a 20 (?) classes for a discounted rate and use those 20 classes whenever.



I will find out more and let ya'll know.

Michelle, are you going to join me next saturday???
