Guys, the weekend is near (thank goodness!), and there is so much good stuff on the roster for the next few days, from an Empire-themed spin class (yes, you read that correctly) to a Michael Jackson versus Bruno Mars dance-off class and more. Take your pick, below.
1. Empire-themed ride at Body Cycle Studio
When: Friday, June 26th at 7:45 p.m.
Where: 1923 Chestnut Street, Rittenhouse.
Drip. Drop. Drip, drippity, drop. If those words mean anything to you, you’re not going to want to miss Body Cycle Studio’s ride — perhaps the best themed spin ride I’ve ever heard of — this friday: the Empire-themed ride. They’ll be blasting music from the show all class long, and Stripp’d Juice will be on deck with some cocktails. Yep, it’s going to be amazing. $20
2. Watch the TriRock Philadelphia Triathlon
When: Saturday, June 27th and Sunday, June 28th.
Where: Fairmount Park.
In desperate need of some fitness motivation? This weekend, watch as athletes get their swim, bike and run on through Fairmount Park. Watching someone swim across the Schuylkill in the name of exercise will make your training run look like a walk in the park. We’ll have a spectators guide on the coming your way tomorrow, so stay tuned! Free
3. MJ vs. Bruno Dance-Off at Philly Dance Fitness
When: Sunday, June 28th at 3:30 p.m.
Where: 1170 South Broad Street, South Philly.
Get ready to moonwalk your day away (and also do whatever dance moves Bruno Mars is famous for) during this hilarious 90-minute dance-off. And don’t be scared off by the idea of moonwalking — no dance experience is necessary to join in. $25
4. Devil Takes the Hindmost Fun Run
When: Saturday, June 27th at 11 a.m.
Where: Temple Track, 1901 North 15th Street, North Philly.
Devil costumes! Angel costumes! A run that never ends! You’ll find all those things and more at this free fun run put on by Wesley Celestino of Chasing Trail and Rebecca Barber of the Rocky 50K. And don’t worry: The run does eventually end — you just don’t know when. Free
5. Free Yoga at Lemon Hill
When: Saturday, June 27th at 9 a.m.
Where: Lemon Hill, Fairmount Park.
The Fairmount Park Conservancy kicks off their summer-long yoga series this Saturday, and it’ll usually run folks who aren’t members of the Fairmount Park Conservance 10 bucks, but this weekend it’s free for everyone. Woohoo!
