Every body is unique, with each individual craving different movement modalities that serve their needs, preferences and abilities. Now, imagine a fitness method that not only embraces these differences but also celebrates them — offering everyone the opportunity to feel both challenged and accomplished as they progress their personal goals.

Look no further than PLNK MTN: the latest workout method for the locals and visitors of the Vail Valley. The high intensity, low impact 50-minute Pilates-inspired workout class sets you up for success inside and outside of the studio. Each full body class targets core strength, cardio, endurance, balance, body composition and flexibility through slow and controlled movements on the Megaformer.
“We are dedicated to encouraging and motivating people of every age and fitness level to achieve and maintain a strong, healthy body,” PLNK founder Brooke Meek passionately explains.
Every instructor is extensively trained and certified to sequence and cue slow, intentional movements with a hyperfocus on form, alignment and core engagement. This method hits close to home for Meek because, after an injury in 2016, she was forced to rethink her training routine. She discovered Lagree and the benefits of “high intensity, low impact in a way [she] had never experienced before,” the entrepreneur articulates. “I immediately knew I had to share the method with my hometown of St. Louis.”
Meek’s first studio opened in 2016 in St. Louis, Missouri. Although even then, she knew her brand was destined to be in the Vail Valley. Meek and her family have been spending time here for as long as she can remember, which is why she felt called to open a studio in town. Today, her dream has come to fruition. PLNK MTN is her seventh studio, located next to Avon Bakery & Deli in Avon. PLNK MTN is open seven days a week and has the earliest workout class in the Valley: 5:30 a.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
The PLNK MTN team strives to empower their clients, no matter their stage of life or how they spend their time outside of the studio.
“We know each human that walks through our doors is there for a different reason,” Meek says full of gratitude. “Some use the method to improve body composition and meet goals around weight and measurements, while others are there on a day off from lifting or running. And still, others come in to regain strength and mobility post injury or surgery.”
