If you didn't like Beta, you could try the Stamford running club. My boyfriend and friend both like running in it. I think it's paused for cold weather right now?

There's a good aerial studio in Stamford, Empowered Aerial Fitness. I go there a few times a week and have met a nice group of young women.

There's also a crafty discord chat from this subreddit for people who like to needlepoint, sew, etc.

I've been looking at trying a class at Empowered Aerial would you recommend? It seems so intimidating!

I definitely would! I'm there multiple times a week. I'm actually a work study there so I work at the front desk in exchange for classes. I'm happy to answer any questions about the schedule!

I see some meet up notifications for the running club - meet sat morn 9 am in front of lorca - do you know if it's a mix of men and women? has your bf been going recently? It seems intimidating to me because I am not a runner but I should try it out. You're my accountability partner now LOL I shall report back Really appreciate the recommendation : )

I think it's a decent mix of men and women. I have a good girl friend who goes semi frequently too. (Not recently as she's marathon training)

He hasn't been since the fall, so I'm not sure what it's like right now.
