Denver Boot Camp

Sat, October 3, 10am – 11am at the Washington Park Recreation Center Each Denver Boot Camp is becoming the biggest program in Denver. It is already the toughest, but worth the results.

The program is perfect for everyone because you are pushed to your own personal limits. We have everyone out there; the out of shape, new moms, future brides, marathon runners, and triathalon participants.
