Burning calories while
having a blast? Sounds too good to be true but that’s exactly what Delhi’s first fitness party promised. Group workouts conducted by celebrity
fitness professionals, pulsating music, and a central location all guaranteed a
unique event.

What
is a Fitness Party?
When you work out, your body releases endorphins to give you a burst of happiness. At fitness
parties, endorphins are guaranteed with group exercise activities, peppy music,
cool fitness merchandise, and healthy food. As fitness becomes fashionable,
fitness parties are the future of the wellness industry.
That awkward moment when you're called on stage!
Delhi’s
First Morning Fitness Party
The Times of India and Fitternity.com organized
the first fitness party in Delhi, aided by sponsors like SOIE
and Aegon Life Insurance, among others. It was held on September 17, at The Park Hotel, Connaught Place. The venue was ideal, as a large hall was used for
indoor sessions and the pool for Aqua Zumba.
Celebrity fitness
trainers were invited to conduct their signature routines. These included
Manisha Kohli for Yoga, Sucheta Pal for Aqua Zumba, Shalini Bhargava for Masala
Bhangra, Deepika Saxena for Pilates, and Crush Fitness India for Dance Fitness.
The event ended with a dance party to DJ Raedl’s beats. Each group was given a
45 minute slot.
Tickets for the event were
reasonably priced at Rs. 300 and food packages were sold for an additional Rs.
250. These packages included a vegetable sandwich, a couple of fruits, an energy bar, a muffin, yoghurt, and a soy milk drink.
There was a station to
check your Body Mass Index, with experts giving advice. There were also on-the-spot
giveaways by the event’s sponsors.

Crush
Fitness India
I chose Crush Fitness India's session as the time slot of 9:45 a.m. allowed me a Sunday morning snooze!
The Crush Club program
of Crush Fitness India is based on six different dance styles, including Bhangra,
Bollywood, Jazz, Merengue, Salsa and Hip-Hop. These styles are merged to make a
unique High Intensity Interval Training workout set to lively music. They claim their sessions can make you burn up to 600 calories in 60 minutes.
Founder Bharat Sadana, is
blessed with the ability to make large crowds follow him in his energetic dance movements.
Along with co-founder Uday Raj Anand, he has put together a team of young dance
fitness professionals. Each team member delivers a phenomenal workout. They
stay true to the structure of Crush Club, yet bring in a flavor all their own.
After attending their
explosive session, I can confidently attest to their calorie-crushing claims. There was fantastic energy in the room throughout the session.
The sweating was proof of calorie-burn and our smiles proof of a well-deserved
happiness!

Review
of the Morning Fitness Party
The event suffered from
slight teething problems. The emcee was unimpressive as he failed to engage the
audience. More pursers were needed for crowd management; especially to make
people stand with sufficient gaps from each other.
The sessions started on
time, which was a bonus. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and look forward to attending
more parties. With their reasonable price point, central location and ability
to attract people of all age groups; they will certainly do well.
Event rating: 4.5/5
