The Best Workout Classes in Atlanta

As someone who worked out at 5 am for a decade during my Spanx career era, I can say it laid the groundwork for my current fitness situation. I am grateful to my past self for putting in the hours and hours before being fit was, technically, on trend. I used to print out workouts when I would go on trips (now, thankfully, there are apps galore and Isaac Boots subscriptions on Instagram), but it’s always been something that I’ve enjoyed. Before having kids I certainly worked out more (I think, too, with age and wisdom I’m able to not have my life revolve around if I worked out or not), but I am in a happy place with my current routine, a focused couple of hours in Pilates weekly and then, depending on the week, supplementing at home or with an additional class or two. Here are my personal favorites, as well as some of my readers, around Atlanta – and if you’re out of town, the inter webs.
