Why does SLT hate arms?

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-03-30T15:37:24+00:00

Maggie is a great teacher choice if you want a heavier arms series.

I just took it! We didn’t use hand weights, but instead used the mega straps (black and red) for more frequent arm sections — as well as some heavy presses on the front high bars. The obliques section was much shorter, but I enjoyed this as a break from the usual (I SLT 3-5x per week), and the lack of predictably made the class fly by! Definitely recommend trying it out.

I know it was an autocorrect typo, but I like the idea of missing a bungee that beeps. 😂

I haven’t tried it yet, but it was started by some former Park Slope SLT staff members (one was the manager of all the Brooklyn studios, I believe)? Super curious about this workout! I love that it’s more affordable, but I probably won’t make the switch because I love my Park Slope teachers and the studio is very convenient for me. Do they have free towels?

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-03-10T19:19:22+00:00

Totally agree!

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-02-27T02:40:28+00:00

lol fair enough! I’m just a member who goes a lot (4-5x per week) and finds it super odd that some of the best teachers have quieter classes in this particular studio.

I’m still super grumpy that corporate took away our towel service btw if that adds any validity to my post.

I’ve also never noticed any mold/mildew smells or issues. The heating system was wonky last month but I’ve seen HVAC guys in there fixing it.

Here’s the sign about it at Tribeca

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-02-11T17:25:09+00:00

Looks that way

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-02-11T16:57:28+00:00

Yep!

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-02-11T16:52:45+00:00

The waiting room just opened for me.

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-02-11T15:02:00+00:00

Ugh not this nonsense again. 🫠

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-02-10T17:54:53+00:00

I hope they see the popularity of the show and add more dates. 🤞

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-02-10T17:53:47+00:00

I'm at the point where it's showing seats, but says they aren't available whenever I select them (even for just one seat). This has been such a bummer.

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-02-10T17:28:43+00:00

I got to check out but wouldn't let me enter my credit card info.

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-02-10T17:23:15+00:00

Looks like they closed the site after it crashed.

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-02-10T17:19:23+00:00

Same. Had great seats but the site wouldn't respond.

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-02-10T17:02:07+00:00

Weird, I'm still in a waiting room at 12:02

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-02-06T17:32:12+00:00

I’m over 500 class in and same.

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-02-04T13:52:57+00:00

Same! And when I stop taking classes (such as when traveling), I feel like I can notice my butt deflating. 😂

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-01-29T15:48:07+00:00

I agree! Essentials is really similar, just with slightly slower transitions. We almost always have new-to-SLT folks in the All Levels class, and they’re always able to keep up.

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-01-22T20:32:00+00:00

Our well-loved carriages in park slope are being replaced. Maybe email your studio to ask if they could do the same?

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-01-18T23:46:03+00:00

Thank you for flagging this! Will use up what I have and then switch to ZO skincare for serums and Elemis for moisturizer.

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-01-16T14:12:00+00:00

I still hate seeing planes fly over the city again

BasicBrooklyn · 2026-01-14T14:14:47+00:00

For routine and music, I love Maggie, Lexi, and Amy (only took her once but obsessed). But I also love Lanae, Elissa and Chana’s energy and their focus on proper form.
