10 Workout Classes You Can Live-Stream From Your Living Room

By now, we’re settling into our new normal—staying at home, minimizing all social contact, venturing out as seldom as possible for essential errands only. We’re finding ways to entertain ourselves and also figuring out how to stay fit and active during this prolonged lockdown. Fitness studios and services around the world have pivoted to offer more at-home experiences, which you can read about here. But if what you miss is the communal experience of working out in a group and getting real-time motivation from an instructor, these live-streamed workouts are for you.

MISFITSTUDIO
With MISFITSTUDIO’s IRL locations in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver temporarily closed, they’ve pivoted to online. In addition to daily classes streamed on Instagram Live that combine elements of movement, yoga and Pilates, the studio is also offering over 45 different online classes live via Zoom. Each class is $18 (+ HST) and sign-up closes 25 minutes before class time.

Formation Studio
Formation Studio closed its doors two weeks ago but you can still experience its dance-based fitness routine virtually. Weekly IG Live classes include a 40-minute Power class, which offers music-driven strength and conditioning and a 30-minute Freedom class, which promises nonstop movement aka a digital dance party. Keep an eye out for other online options, to be announced on their social channels soon.

Sweat & Tonic
To keep their community going during these unprecedented times, Toronto gym Sweat & Tonic has launched Sweat Live, an online space for group classes and personalized coaching via Zoom (for $12/class), and is also offering a slate of free classes daily on Instagram Live. These IG Live classes cover everything from prenatal yoga to sound healing to full body HIIT. In addition, the studio is launching a new service on April 3 called Sweat On Demand, which offers an all-access pass to the studio’s digital library of fitness classes like yoga, HIIT, boxing, and Pilates. The on-demand service starts with a 7-day free trial, following which the fee is $15/month.

Women’s Health
Since self-isolation became a reality for millions around the world, Women’s Health magazine has been inviting trainers to take over their Instagram feed daily with live-streamed workouts. The schedule for this week includes cardio boxing, a full body circuit, abs and core-focused workouts and a Dance HIIT class. All classes are 30 minutes or less and require minimal to no equipment. Don’t fret if you can’t tune in at the appointed time; all workouts are saved for 24 hours on their page.

Tracy Anderson
Personal trainer to the likes of Gwyneth Paltrow and Alessandra Ambrosio, Tracy Anderson may have temporarily shuttered her studios but her famed workouts are continuing online. “[Our] mission during this time is to keep innovating ways to stay connected with all of you and help you stay balanced and clear,” they shared on Instagram, announcing the launch of a new series of virtual live classes. The first class launched on March 29th, with the next ones lined up for Saturday, April 4th and Sunday, April 5th at 11am EST. Classes will be presented via Zoom, and in order to view the live stream, participants need to sign up at https://bit.ly/TracyLIVE at least one hour prior to the start of the class.
