La Vida Loca

Vida Fitness

You said no thanks to the Mariah Carey tickets, don’t know a slap shot from a slam dunk, and couldn’t care less about the horse show.

Basically, you steer clear of the Verizon Center.

But now there’s a reason to go. Vida Fitness opens tomorrow in a huge corner spot — as in the largest workout space in town — right at 7th and F. The full-service gym has more than enough fitness options to get you over that way: Three levels of cardio machines, circuit training, cycling, weights, pools, and personal training. Plus classes such as All Glute, Quad Burn, and Bicep Blast, in addition to standards like yoga, meditation, kickboxing, and Pilates.

And it’s not all workout all the time. They’ve got nutrition and wellness programs and relaxing amenities like a spa, Japanese soaking tubs, laundry service, and Bang Salon.

Before you know it, you’ll be there constantly. And you might even find yourself saying yes to some Streisand tickets.

And you’ll no longer be the way you were.

Vida Fitness, 7th and F Streets NW (202-393-8432 or vidafitness.com).
