Feeling defeated on your fitness journey? Don't sweat it. Hustle over to Dance House Fitness and werkitoutâ„¢ with Jenny Sanchez and her team.

Dance House Fitness (DHF) just celebrated its three-year anniversary in April and the party is still going.

The classes at DHF reflect the enthusiasm and passion for dance and fitness, but most importantly – the people behind them. The lineup is so EXTRA but so worth it.

DHF opened its first location in Montrose on February 25, 2016, while Jenny Sanchez worked full time in Corporate America. She also taught 20 classes per week for six months. Sanchez and her team later opened a Heights location the following year – now that's HUSTLE.

DHF welcomes all levels, whether you got the moves or can barely turn the beat around. "We allow a space for people to do what they love without any stress," says Sanchez. "When you walk in, you feel a part of something. That's what it's all about."

With confidence in Houston's talent, Sanchez seeks opportunities for the women on her team and inspires others to never give up.

We can all SLAY like Beyonce.

New clients can try for one week of unlimited classes for $29.

One Saturday morning, I was out driving around and saw what looked like a yoga class being held at a local, popular bar. I thought, "that is so cool! I'm sure the good people of Houston would love to know where to get their workout on and their drink on at the same time." So, this article was born. I went on the hunt to make a fully comprehensive list of the breweries, bars, and restaurants where you can get a workout. Here goes.

Yoga and brunch at Clutch

Yoga at Clutch

Saturday@ 11am

5334 Washington Ave. Houston, Tx 77007

During the week, Clutch is where 20 somethings and 30 somethings go to enjoy a burger. But come Saturday morning, join Clutch and Fitness In The Loop for an hour long yoga class that is always free. Release the tension of the week and finish with $5 mimosa specials. Enjoy light to heavy fair like avocado toast, greek yogurt, or chicken and waffles.

Watermelon cooler, micheladas, of course, yoga​

Yoga at Spring Street Beer and Wine Garden

Sundays@ 11am

1920 Houston Ave. Houston, Tx 77007

If you find yourself in the artsy First Ward on Sundays, you can catch yoga with the other hipsters at Spring Street Beer and Wine Garden. Enjoy an hour class of yoga that is always free. Spring Street Beer and Wine Garden has its own food truck waiting to serve you burgers, flatbreads, and tacos after the class. Most people opt for a Watermelon Cooler or a $4 Michelada to get refreshed.

Cross-train at Karbach Brewery

Wednesdays @ 7pm

2032 Karbach St. Houston, Tx 77092

We all know Karbach Brewing for Houston beer favorites like Weekend Warrior and Love Street Kolsch. If you are a Karbach fan, you also know that it is a weekend destination with so many activities to offer that you cannot fit them in one weekend. Forget that Karbach has a full restaurant with pub favorites like fish and chips and beer can chicken. Not everyone knows that Karbach has its own athletic department complete with yoga, a running club, and a cross training brew camp in the Biergarten. You can work off those beer calories in the cross training Karbach Brew Camp. $10 gets you in. Just bring a mat and wear comfortable workout clothes. Be ready to sweat and earn that free Weekend Warrior at the end!
