October 24, 2014 by Erin O'Hare
Since I moved to Charlottesville in 2009, I’ve walked past the tru PILATES studio hundreds of times. I’ve always been intrigued by the little warehouse space by the train tracks, by what lurks behind the frosted glass garage doors. I had heard good things about Pilates, but I never really looked into it, because I […]
Fitness Check-in: IronWolf Training
October 10, 2014 by Linnea White
Two days ago, I walked into IronWolf Training with my head held high, ready to embrace the “pack mentality” and iron spirit at Laura Conklin‘s Charlottesville gym. From plyometric step ups, wall sits, and one leg squats to kettle bell swings, ring rows, and one arm cleans, the circuit style class was a butt-whoopin’ served […]

Fresh out of Bikram Yoga teacher training, Lizzie Clark and then-business partner Michaela Curran Grubbs, opened Bikram Yoga Charlottesville on 5th Street on January 27, 2004.

Local Fitness Check-in: Opal Yoga
November 5, 2013 by Katerina Diplas
Just over 7 months ago, Charlottesville welcomed its first vinyasa yoga studio, Opal Yoga. A variety of studios around town offer vinyasa yoga classes, but Opal saw the major itch for a vinyasa focused studio, and started scratching. I sat down with Karen Thomas, the owner of Opal Yoga, to get the story behind Opal, […]

September 27, 2013 by Katerina Diplas
Charlottesville loves itself some fitness, and thankfully we’re spoiled in this town with a plethora of options to chose from. Clay Fitness and Nutrition is totally different than anything I had tried in the past, which for the most part was the typical gym memberships. It’s given me a new perspective on how to work […]
