    I am looking to take some sort of fitness class in the evenings. Does anyone know of a place that offers a great yoga or other good fitness class? Is there a yoga studio around here?

    I know at one point there was a pilates class in the nature center -- is that still happening?

    Would appreciate any info -- thanks!

    Gold's Gym is not too bad and has everything from Yoga to cycling classes.

    Largest gym on the east coast and it never feels crowded, at least when I go there.

    World gym on waxpool really sucks way too small.

    HI,

    I have been going to this Jazzercize class in Boyd school 3 days a week (6:30 - 7:30 pm) for the past year and it is very good. The ad is in the Broadlands Newsletter and let me know if you want to join - I can get a coupon for you ;-)

    Next Health offers yoga classes in their "Yoga Studio". I went & got rates yesterday:

    for up to 3 classes a week for 1 month: $120 ($10 p/class)
    for 3 months $300
    for 6 months $500

    The rates go down obviously if you buy the multiple month packages. They have a childcare area too but not sure on those rates. You can also go in for a free trial class.

    Also there's a place called the OM center which I've heard is awesome & reasonable rates.

    And NOVA Urgent care off Loudoun County Pkwy has a Yoga studio as well but while I've heard they're great, the prices aren't that reasonable. I also heard there's a Pilates place in those condo offices across from the Food Lion in Ashburn but I don't have any info from them.

    You can tell I've been researching too:D

    Gold's has yoga and pilates as part of their classes they have for members.. maybe not the type you looking for.. but as part of a larger 'package' may be interesting to you

    You may also want to look at Williams Martial Arts and Fitness, at Ashburn Village and Farmwell - near the CVS. They have yoga and other classes:

    Thanks, everyone, for the info -- all very helpful. I would definitely be interested in the Jazzercise class as well -- can you let me know where I can get more info/how I can find that coupon? Thanks!

    I just want to mention for anyone else also interested in exercise classes that I went to the Jazzercise class at the Boyd School and it was a great, fun workout. I am definitely going to sign up! I also am looking into the yoga classes at Next Health. Thanks again, all, for the recommendations.
