Sports Basement's Virtual Classes & Contests

We’ve got a variety of weekly events and fitness classes hosted every day. Let your little ones dance around to some live family jams or tune in to our weekly bike maintenance Q&A with an SB bike shop manager. If you’re in the mood to get moving, you can pick and choose which classes work for you or go big (and stay home) with a full week of workouts!

We’re so grateful to all of our partners for supporting these weekly classes and helping us bring fitness to our virtual community. Keep an eye out for special giveaways from some of our partners!

All of our classes are hosted via Zoom. Due to security issues, we've implemented a password for all zoom links that you'll see in your Basementeer emails. You can also message us at friends@sportsbasement.com or via Facebook Messenger to get the password.


HIIT at Home with Gabe - Mindful Monday
Mondays at 12:00pm-12:30pm

Gabe Schloss is born and raised in Sonoma county and currently works as a personal trainer with Corefit in Santa Rosa. His passion for fitness found him back in 2017 while he was recovering from a work accident that left him without much use of his left arm. Through exercise, and diet, he’s been able to restore his arm and continue to achieve goals he never thought possible and now he wants to help others find their flame through exercise.

Join him every Monday at noon for a High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) workout using common things found around the house. Deep dive into the muscles you're working and how it impacts your body.
