2021 Greenway Fitness Program

17, May, 2021

The Greenway Conservancy is excited to announce our 2021 Greenway Fitness Season, presented by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts. 

We invite you to reconnect and rediscover The Greenway this year through free fitness classes across the park every Monday through Friday, with additional classes taking place on select Saturdays and Sundays. This year offers a range of options including yoga, barre, cardio boxing, and Labyrinth walking; there’s truly something from everyone!

Our Fitness Progam begins on The Greenway on May 24, 2021. Prior to the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions on May 29, participants are required to wear a face-covering as well as sign-up in advance due to capacity restrictions to accommodate social distancing. Instructors may choose to keep some safety precautions in place. Please visit the Greenway Fitness Calendar for specific information on what to expect for each class.

The Conservancy’s sixth year of partnership with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts on the Greenway Fitness Program arrives at the perfect time for residents, visitors, and downtown workers to re-engage with The Greenway’s beautiful spaces and to will connect those safely able to visit the park with free fitness and resources to stretch, strengthen, and unwind this summer.

“We’re excited for another summer of outdoor fun and exercise with the Greenway Fitness Program,” said Jeff Bellows, Vice President of Corporate Citizenship and Public Affairs at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts. “Fitness classes in the heart of Boston offer a chance for regular physical activity that is critical to a healthy lifestyle. We want to make it easy and fun to get outside and be active, and we’re thrilled to be working with the Greenway Conservancy to offer classes for folks of all ages, abilities and interests.”
