Save Spin at LA Fitness Norwalk

The Issue

Since LA Fitness in Norwalk opened its doors over a decade ago, the club has always offered a full schedule of cycle/spin classes, developing a diverse community of riders and fitness enthusiasts alike who enjoyed this low-impact, cardio workout. The classes have brought together members young and old, men and women, athletes and fitness beginners.

On November 26th 2024, without warning or reason, the entire spin program was eliminated effective immediately. Not even a notice went out to long-devoted paying members, as those who attended the final class were made aware of the decision then by the instructor. Many still probably aren't even aware until they go to show up for the next class they have been attending. And this is not as if corporate has decided to eliminate spin as an offering from all LA Fitness locations, as the Trumbull location still is offering several classes on it's schedule.

We are hoping that if we can collect enough signatures of those impacted by this short-sided and abrupt decision, we can let the decision makers now that there is a large contingent who are upset by this move and we politely demand that some semblance of a cycle/spin program returns to the Norwalk location. Even on a reduced weekly schedule, the need for spin classes in Norwalk is strong and the club risks alienating long-time members who may seek to go elsewhere for their fitness needs.

Please pass this along to anyone you know who wants to support this initiative. Furthermore, please voice your displeasure to management at LA Fitness directly at the following email addresses:
