Have you or can you schedule a successful group exercise program after 8:00pm?
I live, again I say we live, and also work as the organizer for the complementary fitness classes in our high rise building. We are located in a major city and I try to change up the “routine” classes regularly but have noticed many residents in the elevator asking we add more classes at post 8pm. Our 9 plus year experience has lent us to a very lax show at this time, has the industry changed and we missed it? Many of our one on one’s take this time slot they pay and are committed… are we missing the later night exercise groupies that need motivation? Or is this just a conversation starter so we welcome them into the earlier time slots with out remorse….
I have started a few 8 and 9 pm classes at the request of patrons. But they have always fizzled out after a few weeks. Now I offer to schedule them in a private session. Some go for it and some don’t, but all of the “oh, I would definitely come to an 8/9 pm class” people stop attending class after a few weeks.
