Wondering what is going on with our local gyms? I reached out to gyms in Darien to see what they are doing to keep their clients active during this pandemic.
• Fit Finder CT is a website that provides you with local trainers. With over 30 trainers providing a range of different styles ranging from pilates, yoga, weight training, nutrition, barre, and more. They also list what age category you are looking for from kids to seniors. With Covid-19 restrictions, you are able to have one on one training outdoors or virtual.

• Orange Theory Fitness
It is so important to us to keep our OTF communities engaged and active while the studios remain closed. Just because we can’t meet in the studio doesn’t mean we aren’t committed to helping our members achieve More Life. Every day, until all of our studios reopen, we will be sharing a 30-minute workout spotlighting coaches from around the world. Members won’t need special equipment, although we may ask them to scrounge around the house for some objects.
The goal of these workouts is not to replace the in-studio experience, but simply to keep our members moving and active during this time and to continue to foster a sense of community. We know that staying active is a critical part of many people’s lives, so we wanted to honor that with Orangetheory At Home™ workouts that provide motivation and a sense of togetherness and inspire More Life.
These workouts can be accessed by visiting https://www.orangetheory.com/en-us/athome/
Gyms are opening on June 17th.
