We got some tips that a new gym is coming to the area called Monkey Bar Gym. Yes, it sounds like it would be for kids, but from what we've read that's not the case:
Monkey Bar Gym was created by Jon Hinds in 2000 and was the beginning of a fitness revolution. MBGs are the only gyms in the nation to integrate full-body skills training for strength, speed and stamina; Eischens Yoga for restoration and healing; and a plant-based diet for the health of people and our planet. Full-body skills training, Eischens Yoga, and Plant-based Nutrition is the MBG3.
The space is currently being built out just south of Cermak at 2255 S. Michigan. A reader emailed us letting us know that they're planning on opening on December 1st. Here are some pictures of the space from their website:
Glad to see more stuff moving in down there. Although it's not the Sloop by our definition it's still an area with a ton of potential. Anyway, if you're intrigued it sounds like they're going to have free classes during the opening weeks. Check out their website for more info.
