Breakthrough: The Wall Fitness

20190331_124711.jpg

Nestled between Los Angeles’ Miracle Mile and Park La Brea neighborhoods sits The Wall Fitness. It is not secret LA is bubbling over with the latest and greatest in boutique fitness studios, however we did find ourselves wondering how The Wall got to this specific location.

We stopped into the studio during our Fit with Finesse anniversary weekend celebrations out of pure curiosity. CaCera stumbled across The Wall on Instagram and there was really no choice given for Shawnie to follow along. That’s usually how these things work. 😊

What we found was a very sleek studio and of course you have to read below to hear more about it.

The Deets

The Wall bills itself as an indoor cycling, bootcamp and stretch studio. The studio’s signature class is a 60-minute STACK class which includes 10 minutes of core exercise, 20 minutes of circuit training that is timed specifically to the beat and rhythm of music and 30 minutes of cycling.

Class participants are also assigned heart rate monitors that helps easily track performance data and drive results.

Gear Needed:

You can get whatever you need in the studio. There’s even a juice bar for a little after-class refreshment or pre-class energy drink to get you revved up. You can rent cycle shoes in the studio or bring your own. There is even free parking in a garage next door, which is a honestly a good perk for this side of town.

Studio Vibe:

Sleek. That’s it. Very New York City-sleek. The lobby is bright, the studios are dark, and everything is backlit.

Who to Bring?

The friend who is effortlessly flawless and cool. This place is a bit of a scene.

Would You Double Tap That?

No. We didn’t feel we were pushed hard enough, and our instructor seemed to cater more to the studio regulars than first-timers. We felt we were sweating more from the studio’s temperature than from the actual workout. Music is a large part of a great fitness experience and we the way the studio infused music into the literal temp of class could have been a bit more seamless.
