SoulCycle X Target

Hi friends! Hope you're having a great weekend! If you haven't heard, Target and SoulCycle have teamed up to do pop up shops and classes in ten cities across the US - so cool right? What's better? Denver was one of the cities! I was lucky enough to attend and all I can say is WOW!

They popped up at the Space Gallery (4th and Santa Fe for you Denverites) and really did an awesome job. The retail felt like a cute little boutique. And the clothes! As I was browsing I kept saying, "Nice job Target!" They really nailed it and had some super cute pieces (I may have walked out with a thing or three). There was a fun little photo booth where you could make a little photo video. They provided shoes and towels for class, and a bag with a Suja juice and Kind bar after class (thank you, very much needed).

I've never done a spin class. Ever. I've also only done cardio twice since June. Yes, since June (turns out diagnosing cancer kind of gets in the way of your workout routine ;) ). So I was beyond terrified and thought for sure I would be the girl that barfs or is carried out on a stretcher (and they put me front and center, of course #instantpanic), but I'm happy to report I survived! I have to give major props to my instructor, Sam. Being a Pure Barre teacher I have SUCH an appreciation for a motivating workout instructor - someone who gives clients not just a workout, but an experience. And Sam did just that. Her energy was INSANE! I couldn't help but think, "Is she seriously doing this entire class with us while instructing with this much energy? I want some of that Kool-Aid!" Seriously though, she was amazing and at the end of class when we were stretching I almost cried (I'm cheesy and emotional, okay?) because it was just such a cool experience. I left feeling like a total badass. I'm still on a workout high from that class, it was really that awesome. Check out my photos from the event below!
