Story by Michelle Jackson. One of the most challenging aspects of being stuck indoors is the impact that it鈥檚 having on Coloradans ability to manage our mindset and health through fitness. But local studios and fitness centers are stepping up by offering free online workouts. Never participated in a remote workout? Here are some tips to success.

How Do Online Fitness Classes Work?

Fortunately, it鈥檚 pretty straightforward. Most organizations are using a tool called Zoom in order to stream the classes in real time. The cool thing about Zoom and other similar tools is that these recorded classes can also be shared as a pre-recorded class later. Here is a Quick Start Guide to using Zoom.

Some additional tips for first-timers.

Laptops or desktop computers or streaming to your television are the best tools to use. It can be difficult to watch classes on your phone because of the smaller screens.

CAUTION: You will be moving around, potentially jumping, waving your arms, etc. Make sure that your device is secure and won鈥檛 fall off the table or wall that it is propped on.

Close out any other tabs that would stream the same class because it will affect your audio. And, it鈥檚 like that you may need to mute your audio as well.

Workout on a surface that you can move around on safely. I have a 6鈥 x 9鈥 carpet that I remove so that I鈥檓 moving around on my tile floor.

If your fitness teacher hasn鈥檛 changed the video settings people might be able to see you! Toss a washcloth or small piece of material to cover the camera at the top of your laptop. Then, if you would like to introduce yourself to the other attendees, you can remove the camera cover.

What to Expect

If your class is livestreaming on Facebook then you just need to show up on time and wait for the instructor to start the class. Other attendees may ask questions or need help with the technology. 

Be patient.

Once those questions are taken care of the instructor will let the students know what to expect and how they plan on teaching the class.

The great thing about these classes is that you can forget what鈥檚 going on for the next hour and just dance, stretch, or move in a way that keeps you grounded. Below is a list of local studios and gyms that are currently sharing free online fitness classes.

Because the situation is fluid there may be no clear end date for these classes. 

This is sharing free online fitness classes and providing links to those classes. They are also sharing previously recorded content as well. There is a wide range of classes being shared ranging from: row classes if you have a rowing machine, Pilates, and yoga.

I don鈥檛 live near Outlaw Yoga  but I鈥檝e wanted to check out their studio for awhile now and now I can via their page and 7 Day Yoga Challenge. Click on the different posts in order to follow the videos. If you live in Littleton, Outlaw Yoga may become your go to for your yoga practice.

This Denver based yoga powerhouse has given people access to a number of free classes online. I miss taking hot yoga, but happily it鈥檚 getting hot outside! There are a number of different yoga styles that Corepower teaches its students. 

This high intensity, high impact Colorado studio is streaming free classes on Friday. The cool thing about Instagram live broadcasts is that you can watch them 24 hours after the initial recording. The classes begin at noon MT and there were more than 240 people taking part in the class that I checked out when working on this post.

Is hosting free daily workouts via Instagram Live. Join this fun crew while getting your daily workout on. Once the stay home orders are lifted, you can check out this studio on West Colfax.

Has a couple of studios in Denver and now they鈥檙e offering workouts via Instagram. Follow their Instagram feed and get your bodyweight workouts in! Click on the IGTV icon in the Barry鈥檚 profile to access pre-recorded workouts that have been saved for future use.

Do you love to dance? I鈥檓 a dance fanatic and I鈥檓 excited to share this resource. Scroll to the bottom of the page and take a pre-recorded class with one of your favorite choreographers. Currently, there are three classes that you can take for free: lyrical, hip hop, and contemporary.

Keep On Moving!

Want even more options? Here are 11 apps and online video libraries from national fitness chains.

Even though I prefer taking classes in person, I do hope that studios will continue to offer online class options. Sometimes I鈥檓 just not able to physically attend class but would be happy to participate from home.

Please note: these offerings may change as the situation changes. Double-check the pages of studios offering live workouts. They may add additional classes to the rotation or remove classes depending on what鈥檚 going on.

Walgreens is taking a number of steps in its stores and pharmacies across the U.S., and introducing additional services, to help support customers and patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. Beginning Friday, March 13, Walgreens is waiving delivery fees for all eligible prescriptions, during this evolving situation.

Walgreens pharmacists continue to collaborate with health plan partners, physicians and state officials to ensure that patients have access to the medications they need through services like 90-day refills and early refill authorizations.

The company is reminding customers of a number of available services, including Walgreens Pharmacy Chat, a secure platform available 24/7 online and through the Walgreens mobile app, as well as pharmacy drive thru for customers looking for alternative ways to access their medications. Customers are also able to use the drive thru to purchase select products.

Walgreens Find Care can seamlessly connect customers to a wide selection of health care services from local providers, as well as various telehealth options and services available online and through the Walgreens app.

Due to high demand and to best meet customer needs, Walgreens has put into effect purchase limits on certain products to improve inventory and to help ensure products can be more widely available.

To make online shopping even easier, there will be FREE delivery on any purchase on Walgreens.com until further notice, with no minimum purchase required.

Story by Michelle Jackson. I love working out but have discovered over the years that I get bored easily working out on my own and that I get the best results when I take fitness classes. I personally love meeting the other participants, working toward a shared goal, the camaraderie, and connecting with a community of fitness focused people.

The one problem with my love of classes is the cost. It can get really expensive taking all of the classes that I would like to take. Fortunately Denver and many cities in the metro area have a ridiculous number of free fitness classes for us to enjoy.

One of the most challenging workouts I鈥檝e ever done was with the amazing November Project Community here in Denver. The November Project was started in Boston with the goal of using the city as your gym.

There are groups all over the world and the Denver community is phenomenal. They meet twice a week typically at the State Capital or the Civic Center. However, sometimes the location changes. Join the Facebook group to stay up to date and in the loop each week.

Trails & Ales Meetup Group

If you鈥檙e as obsessed with hiking as I am then you need to join the Trails and Ales Meetup group. There are almost weekly free hiking trips scheduled with varying degrees of difficulty.

What I love about this community besides the fact that they are great people, is that they make the hikes accessible to folks who don鈥檛 have transportation. Carpooling is almost always an option and the only thing they ask is to give the driver some money for gas.

This outdoor community was created to foster diversity and connection between those who love enjoying the outdoors. You will find this group scheduling amazing hikes typically on a monthly basis for all to enjoy.

If you鈥檙e looking to find free fitness classes across the Denver Metro area, then you must follow Free Fitness Denver on Instagram. This incredible resource shares classes weekly that range from yoga, to fitness boot camps and more.

If Mondays have you feeling a little down, then the free Power Vinyasa class hosted by Civic Center Moves will pick you up. This class is held every Monday from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the McNichols Building in Civic Center Park located in downtown Denver. Always check the Facebook page for the most up to date information on the class.

Every Tuesday from 12:15 p.m. to 1 p.m. sweat your stress out with a little Workout Roulette hosted by Compass Fitness and Civic Center Moves. This class is also located in the McNichols Building in Civic Center Park.

Outdoor Afros

This outdoor recreation community was founded in Oakland, California and has spread across the United States. It鈥檚 goal is to create opportunities for people of color to get out and enjoy the outdoors.

Each chapter hosts weekly or bi-weekly; free or inexpensive events unique to the region that they are in. The Denver chapter goes hiking, skiing, snowshoeing, camping and anything else you would expect Coloradans to do outdoors. All are welcome.

If you love dance and old school hip hop, Brandon Harris鈥 Hip Hop Fitness class is a must. Held every Wednesday from 12:15 p.m. to 1 p.m. at the McNichols Building, enjoy dancing to old school hip hop while getting in shape. Don鈥檛 forget to check the Facebook page for the most up to date info on the class.

Every Thursday from noon to 12:45 p.m. workout with Fitness in the City and the River Yoga. Yoga Cross is a fun, and intense workout and a great way to unwind towards the end of the week.

This class is hosted at the McNichols Building in Civic Center Park and is part of the Civic Center Moves program. As always, check the Facebook page for the most up to date information on the class.

One of my absolute favorite fitness events in Denver is Yoga Rocks the Park. Enjoy your yoga practice for free at the Sunken Gardens Park located at 401 W. 9th Ave across from West High School.

1800 Wazee Street
Denver, CO 80202

Milk Market/Dairy Block

Are you training for the Colfax or Rock and Roll Half Marathon? Do you need some people to run with? Join in on the fun with the Milk Market Denver weekly run. Participants will meet at the Milk Market around 5:15 p.m. every Tuesday with the run starting at 5:30 p.m.

If you haven鈥檛 visited Milk Market Denver before you鈥檙e in for a treat. It鈥檚 a cool venue with great food and the alley behind it is beautiful. 

Cherry Creek North
105 Fillmore Street, Unit #109
Denver, CO 80206

Besides loving the clothing at Prana, I love the free classes and events that they share with their community. I even snagged a ticket to a free Puppies, Prosecco, and Yoga event one month. You can join in on the fun during their Free Community Yoga class hosted on Wednesdays at 6 p.m.

6252 W. 104th Avenue
Westminster, CO 80020

Almost every kid who grew up somewhere in the Denver Metro area has visited the Butterfly Pavilion and attempted to hold Rosie, the tarantula. I bet you didn鈥檛 know that they also host Rainforest Yoga for individuals 13 years old and up.

The class is $10 for participants who register online or $12 if you drop in.  And, it鈥檚 an amazing experience because the butterflies want in on the fun too. Classes are Wednesday and Saturdays. Check the website for exact times as they may change. 

If you like beer and running this community may be a dream come true. Events are scheduled via Meetup and increase with frequency as the weather warms up. 

305 S. Downing Street
Denver, CO 80209

This running group begins in April and meets every Wednesday at 6 p.m. Hosted by the Blackbird Restaurant in the Washington Park area finish up your run and enjoy free food and $3 craft beers afterwards.

Is an online resource dedicated to all things fitness around the state. FITT shares free classes, cheap resources, and the best of fitness related resources in Denver. If you鈥檙e looking for the best fitness classes in Denver, check out FITT to see where your favorite workout ranks.
