Spinners rejoice—Big Sky Resort’s Elevated Wellness event will take place for the second year on the deck of Everett’s 8800 restaurant on three consecutive Fridays in July, beginning with two cycling classes led by Bozeman-based Zephyr Cycling Studio on Friday, July 12.
The idea to host Elevated Wellness came from a collaboration with the founder and owner of Zephyr Cycling Studio, Carolyn Williams, and Big Sky Resort’s senior manager of brand experience, Liv Grubaugh. Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in challenging workouts at high elevation with Lone Peak as their backdrop.
“There’s nothing like training at elevation,” said Carolyn Williams, founder and owner of Zephyr. “But in reality, it’s a workout that’s accessible to all – the good vibes are so strong, and everyone is just excited to be working out on the deck at Everett’s while gazing right at Lone Peak. It’s fun and exhilarating.”
Along with the cycling class on July 12, instructors from Zephyr will be leading their Evolve class on Friday, July 19, which will feature a full-body, mat-based, cardio-strength workout also on the deck of Everett’s 8800.
New to the event this year, BASE community center will be offering an outdoor, all-levels yoga class at Everett’s on Friday, July 26.
“We are so excited to partner with Big Sky Resort for the Elevated Wellness event,” said Eileen Coil, recreation and wellness manager at Big Sky Community Organization. “The Everett’s deck is such a spectacular place to practice yoga with the views of Lone Mountain on the horizon.”
Classes are each 45 minutes long and Big Sky Resort said participants should allow for at least 15 minutes to ride to the top of Ramcharger 8 and set up. Registration must be made in advance and lift service is included in the registration fee.
