This summer, we had a crazy idea. Take the thing that we loved so much - #Sweatworking - and make a week of it. After putting that into action and spending a week doing all the fitness, we saw that this was something that you could get behind.

From January 9-14, at the time of year when your New Year’s resolutions could be pulling at your heart or hamstrings, we’re doing it again. We’re partnering with studios we consider to be some of the best in the city to offer a taste of their classes for just $15 a pop to incentivize you to get in the doors of your new favorite fitness studios. Think of this as your restaurant week for fitness.

In the middle of the day, we'll bring in some people from the Chicago Fitness community to talk about some of the things they know, some of the things that drive them and we'll walk away from each session a little more empowered. Lunches will be just $5 and every cent will go to the Greater Chicago Food Depository. 

We'll feature lunch from Snap Kitchen and we'll be in space provided by Breather.

January 10, our second Lunch will be with Katie Henry (Physical therapist, wellness enthusiast and a Desire Map Facilitator who walked away from her job at a hospital to help clients pursue goals that are driven by desires and the life that they actually want) and Kate Lemere (Founder and CEO of TheFourPercent.com, Barry's Bootcamp Chicago Founding Instructor, Nike Master Trainer and busy professional who pursued her own path to happiness).
