July 1 - August 31, 2026
Strong bodies. Fun people.
Slightly unhinged cold plunges.
Stay consistent, connect with your community, and have a ridiculously fun summer while you’re at it.
This summer’s hobby? Feeling Ah-mazing.
You know that feeling when September rolls around and somehow you’re exhausted, dehydrated, haven’t moved your body consistently in two months, and need a vacation from your vacation?
Yeah. We’re not doing that this year.
Summer Sweat Club is built for people who want both:
lake days and lower back mobility
patio nights and morning classes
community and consistency
fun summers and strong bodies
You do not need to disappear into a wellness cave to feel good.
Two classes a week. A deeply elite summer.
The Assignment:
MAIN CHARACTERS
Sign up solo, leave with a crew.
Complete 25 classes over the summer for the plot.
GROUP CHATS
Sign up solo, leave with a crew.
Complete 25 classes over the summer for the plot.
You’ll have unlimited access to classes all summer long.
The challenge is simply to stay consistent by hitting roughly two classes per week between July 1st and August 31st.
Structured enough to keep you consistent.
Fun enough to actually do it.
STRONG GLUTES. IMMACULATE VIBES.
