While the remote classes were initially meant for members only, the response was so great that Gerken is able to provide the virtual workouts at no cost, for now. Gerken highlights that the program is meant to be progressive over time, so newcomers should jump in soon. Now, couch potatoes, we have no excuse. Time to start moving.
