Outdoor Boot Camp at Alameda Park East

Fresh air & activity are proven factors for optimizing health—and reducing stress. The fresh-air Boot Camps at Alameda Park East offer you the opportunity to enjoy both. Staged by local fitness professional, Karen Robiscoe of Kardio with Karen, the combination of cardio drills & strength training stations will melt your stress away–and those extra pandemic pounds we’re all toting around, to boot.

The variety of exercise choices makes this a sure bet for every age and fitness level. You’ll lift dumbbells & swing kettlebells, heft medicine balls & master stability balls, thump battle ropes & negotiate hurdles, run cones & bench barbells, step up to elevations & skim slide boards–and still more! Joining the instructor in a bun-busting squat routine or round of tabata between weight training intervals are options, too, but however you raise that heart rate, you’ll work at your own pace and ability, and at the same time—try just a little harder and go just a little more. Under the sun of lovely Santa Barbara, and the watchful eye of a credentialed Group X instructor, you’ll gain muscle, burn fat, and make fast friends with like-minded people—all while having a great time.

A seasonal opportunity to off-set those pending holiday goodies, the November calendar for the hour-long Boot Camp is set for every Monday in the month at 3 pm.

Covid-19 cautionary practices in place! Hand sanitizer, gloves, and disinfectant wipes will be available throughout class, and social distancing is a snap in the wide open space of Alameda Park*. Participants are encouraged to bring their own face coverings if they choose to wear one during class–but face masks are available on request.

Sold individually for just 15.- per class, pay online at https://www.kardiowithkaren.com, & leave your wallet at home. Rather pay as you go? No problem! Cash, and all major credit cards are accepted at the park before class, too.

*class is held in the southeast quadrant of Alameda Park East, (just down from Kid’s World) Park near Sola & Garden and you can’t miss it!
