Discover Mission Bay Fitness Series works out at San Diego resorts

A partnership between a group fitness provider and six resorts is providing a free outdoor fitness series along Mission Bay now through July 9.

NXPT Fitness, specializing in group fitness accommodating all skill levels, has teamed with San Diego Mission Bay Resort, Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa and Marina, Catamaran Resort Hotel and Spa, Bahia Resort Hotel, The Dana on Mission Bay, and Paradise Point Resort and Spa to host outdoor classes. The collaboration is known as the Discover Mission Bay Fitness Series presented by NXPT.

Participants will have water views and bay breezes while working up a sweat at a trainer-led group fitness class by NXPT. Classes are free and open to all ages and fitness levels, featuring a 5K obstacle course, cycling/spin classes, 5K run/walk/jog, yoga, and more.

“We’ve collaborated with six resorts in Mission Bay to put on outdoor events at each resort location every other week throughout the summer,” said Dan Hark, owner and founder of NXPT, which stands for No Excuses Physical Training.

“Each event is unique to the layout of that resort. We have events ranging from yoga classes overlooking the bay, to our 5K obstacle course class. It’s great for us to combine fitness as a vehicle we use to bring our community together and give maximum exposure to Mission Bay.”

NXPT instructors range from qualified and passionate trainers to professional athletes who love to teach what they practice. The goal is to create an environment where participants can get world-class training getting to know their trainers’ names while making an investment in improving their health.

Of NXPT’s outdoor fitness series, Hark noted it offers something for all ages and skill levels.

“We range from the low-intensity yoga demographic all the way up to the competitive athlete looking to challenge themselves, and everyone in-between,” he said adding, “There’s a little something for everybody, from outdoor spin cycling to yoga and our obstacle course for those who love that fitness challenge, or for avid work-out enthusiasts.”

Hark pointed out San Diego’s bayfront is ideal for hosting outdoor fitness with its water views and year-round mild weather. “This is the first time the resorts have collectively gathered their resources to put this outdoor exercise program together, so it’s broken ground for them and for us,” he said adding, “It was a game-changer. Now we were able to be on-campus at each of the resorts using the engine of their social media to help drive exposure to our events.”

Added Hark: “We love the outdoor concept. Especially now, on the other side of the pandemic, we just wanted to reach people to bring them outside creative events that they can participate in with their children, families, and friends to try different types of fitness and get some sunshine and begin their journey back to their pre-COVID reality.”
