I recently signed up for a gym through the city so it's not the nicest fanciest gym in the world but they offer a year membership for $75 and it includes all classes (cardio kickboxing-fave, yoga, spin). I'm also planning on signing up as a guest at the local community college where they charge a low monthly fee and membership includes 6 days of classes (zumba, step, spin, pilates, yoga, etc). I am a huge fan of classes because it makes me feel connected and helps to keep me in a routine.

I've never thought of trying those boot-camp workouts because they looked too tough for me. But if it's really fun as you describe it to be, maybe it's time to change my fitness regimen.
