The Venice Chamber of Commerce launches Fitness Fridays, this week. The 8-week series is aimed at all fitness levels, encouraging you to work out in the afternoon.
Beginning this Friday, July 10 at Penmar Park, Chamber members will meet at 12:00 noon, at the corner of Rose and Penmar Avenue, for a one-hour exercise session led by personal trainers, yoga instructors and other fitness professionals.
Kate Willson from exhale/Venice will be the guest instructor for the first class on July 10. Water and snacks will be provided thanks to Brittany Cook from Allstate Insurance Company/BNC Insurance.
There is no charge to participate and members are encouraged to invite friends and colleagues.
Hosted by a different member studio and trainer every Friday, members attending will experience a variety of practices, such as yoga and pilates, that will help add more diversity to their existing workout or for many, introduce them to ways they can have fun while exercising.
“Fitness Fridays was created in response to members wanting to have a variety of get-togethers beyond the monthly mixers and happy hours,” said Carl Lambert, president of The Venice Chamber of Commerce. “We are proud to add another activity that engages local business professionals and the community that, like the Venice Art Crawl and the Holiday Sign Lighting, exemplifies the creative and innovative spirit of Venice.”
