Encore
Encore Fitness is not your typical workout space. First, it’s in the historic Concrete Theatre, which adds to the drama! Second, it’s not a gym with equipment, monthly memberships, sweaty bodybuilders, or glitzy mirrors and locker rooms! (sorry, those are all fun, but it’s not the way we roll!). Third, it’s sort of a private party, where people join by invitation.
We are a small group fitness studio with spots for 5-9 people. We are all women, and just a few good men occasionally! Our schedule is very fluid and flexible. If we’re all busy with other pursuits, or if the theatre is being used for a special event, we cancel our workouts.
We realize this is not a “health club” but those of us who’ve been working out together since 2009 are healthier and happier than most people.
SCHEDULE
MARCH 2025 – We are on a break! Please get in touch if you’d like more information or want a spot in our April workouts.
I’ve been teaching fitness for more than 40 years – everything from high impact aerobics in the 80s, to weight-training and interval training these days. In addition to owning fitness studios in several locations (on Whidbey Island and here in Concrete), I’ve also taught classes in Anacortes and Sedro-Woolley. For three decades I also taught Wellness and Physical Fitness at the Whidbey Branch of Skagit Valley College.
My favorites things?
• Moving to music of all kinds.
• Seeing people change their lives through fitness.
• Working out with women who are committed to their health.
• Using new technology, techniques, tools, and toys that help us exercise more efficiently and keep our workouts fun!
