We, the undersigned members of Life Time Fitness, are writing to express our sincere request for the continuation of Ashtanga Yoga classes at your facilities. This letter comes from a place of deep appreciation for the unique value that Ashtanga Yoga adds to our lives and our shared community within Life Time Fitness.
Ashtanga Yoga is not merely a fitness routine; it is a comprehensive practice that nurtures physical, mental, and spiritual growth. The structured progression of Ashtanga offers an unparalleled journey of continuous improvement and self-discovery. For many of us, this class has become an essential part of our lives, fostering discipline, strength, flexibility, and peace of mind.
The dedication required by Ashtanga Yoga sets it apart from other forms of practice. It is this very aspect of commitment and personal investment that makes Ashtanga so rewarding. The benefits of Ashtanga extend beyond the mat, influencing our daily lives and overall well-being. It teaches us perseverance, focus, and the importance of maintaining a balanced and healthy lifestyle.
Furthermore, we would like to stress the significance of the 90-minute class duration. Ashtanga Yoga is designed to be practiced in this specific timeframe to fully engage with its sequencing and to delve deeply into the meditative and restorative aspects of the practice. Shortening this time would not only detract from the experience but also from the effectiveness of the practice itself. It is the immersive nature of the 90-minute sessions that allows for a comprehensive exploration of Ashtanga's eight limbs, leading to a more fulfilling practice.
We are aware that other Life Time Fitness locations, including Northbrook and Boca Raton, continue to offer Ashtanga classes with the full 90-minute duration. We believe that maintaining these classes across all locations, including ours, is crucial for providing a consistent and high-quality experience for all members who have come to rely on this practice as a cornerstone of their fitness and wellness regimen.
In conclusion, we respectfully request that Life Time Fitness reconsider any plans to discontinue or alter the Ashtanga Yoga classes. Keeping these classes, as they are, will not only meet the needs of many of your dedicated members but will also uphold Life Time Fitness’s reputation as a leading provider of holistic health and wellness services.
Thank you for considering our petition. We hope for a positive response and look forward to continuing our Ashtanga Yoga practice within the supportive environment of Life Time Fitness.
Ive been doing this class for 15 years. This is the most consistent class in that time frame. The class is very popular. If this class is dropped I will end my membership and swim at the park district.

The Ashtanga practice is one of the few authentic practices left in the country. It would be disappointing if this class got changed or cancelled.

Thank you for using your power to stop the stupidity of the management of Schaumburg Lifetime. This management is taking all classes away that I like doing. Bring ashtanga to 90 min. Bring un bar class and Tracy back. Make all classes back to 69 min instead of 45 min. Thank you.
