“Our citywide facilities offer a wide range of classes at affordable prices, and we encourage patrons to boost their workouts by trying something new during this admission-free period,” said Chicago Park District General Superintendent and CEO Timothy J. Mitchell.

The Chicago Park District is currently offering free admission to its 60 fitness centers now through Jan. 16 where patrons can walk in and use the state-of-the-art equipment.

From Feb. 2-9, the new promotion offers free admission to a variety of fitness classes such as aerobics, circuit training, conditioning, kickboxing, Pilates, stretching, yoga, weightlifting and more.

Classes are available for all age groups from youth to seniors and for all abilities. Courses that encourage parents and children to exercise together are also available, such as MightyfitFamily, which is for families with children ages 3-5. Not only do families discover the benefits of physical exercise, but also get to spend quality time doing fun activities together as part of the program.

Please note that admission to fitness centers and to nutrition and self-defense classes are not included in the promotion. For more information, call 312.742.PLAY, 312.747.2001 (TTY).
