“Dear PoPville,
I wanted to post the following question: Does anyone know of any spin studios or gyms in northwest DC where classes are less than $25 each?”

From an email:
“On Saturday, June 3, MINT Gym and Studio is hosting a FREE outdoor bootcamp at Meridian Hill Park at 10:30 a.m., taught by our infamous Liz Harvey. It’s going to be a crazy and engaging “power playground” event that focuses on both strength and cardio. Sign up via this Eventbrite link, since the event is being held on National Park grounds and we must keep our records straight.”

“Any news on why Capitol Hill Yoga closed? It was one of my favorites, and I thought it was popular…”

“With all of my heart I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to and practiced at Capitol Hill Yoga over the past 8+ years. I absolutely wish you the best both on and off the mat. Please keep practicing. Namaste! ~Stacey”
Capitol Hill Yoga opened in 2009 at 641 Pennsylvania Ave, SE.
