Have you all tried Stroller Strides?
The first week of classes is free. Go see if it's your thing. I did it once. It kicked and worked my toosh. Worth a try especially if your child is willing to sit in a stroller.

But if you loved them and have never...
Just a clarification that the first class is free. They usually meet on Kadena by Chapel 1 and have about 10-12 members per class. I find that after a few classes even my child will sit in a stroller for the hour. Lauren is a great resource and is wonderful about updating her members via email. Great for moms whose kids will not allow them to go to the gym.
I wrote to Lauren and she confirmed that the one free class has changed to one WEEK of free classes!
How can you pass it up?
OOPS! Sorry, you’re obviously much more on the ball then I am. I thought it was a typo. Very cool deal. Sorry for doubting you. JUL
Just got back from Lauren’s Grand re-Opening at Mihama Park. There was a great group of women and one lucky husband to exercise with this morning. I went for the first time on Monday and there is no doubt I will lose a lot of this pregnancy weight if I go consistently. She’s actually starting T/Th evening classes (5pm) starting next week which will be great for me. I highly suggest going to a class this week or showing up for the Opening on Saturday morning to get the discount on a membership.
I’m a “regular” at Lauren’s classes on McT. The classes are fun, energetic and most importantly, MOTIVATING. The ladies that attend are at different fitness levels, but Lauren manages to make it challenging for everyone. Well worth the money. To top it off, your little one(s) will love it as much as you do.
See you at class!!
Is this class still available? I have been to a few classes before (in San Diego Ca. with my sister)! I love it! I wish they had it at this base! Just wondering since it is a year later from the last post!
Yes, classes are still available!
We meet on Kadena and on McTureous.
The website is now http://www.strollerstrides.net/okinawa
And there is a big celebration tomorrow (Wed, 23 Sept) for the anniversary! Lauren, who originally started the classes, is PCSing soon and the business has moved to Sandi Grass. I’ve just updated the info in the post above so that you can now click to their website and reach Sandi directly from there.
