In Meghan Campion’s opinion, working out should be a celebration. This is the ideology behind Glisten, a new dance-inspired fitness studio located at 610 Maple Ave.
Glisten’s Saratoga studio opened in April, but the brand has been around since the COVID-19 pandemic, when Campion began offering virtual workouts on Instagram and eventually through an app with paid subscriptions (which are still available, along with in-app workouts).
“I named it Glisten,” Campion says, “because that’s the feeling I want to create: a confidence, a vibe, that radiates from the inside out.”
Inspired by Campion’s background in professional dancing and personal training, Glisten (the studio) offers beat-based, low-impact workouts in three formats: sculpt, full body, and dance cardio. All are designed to get you moving your body while boosting your mood and building confidence, and all levels and backgrounds are welcome.
“I know what it’s like to feel like the only person in the room who doesn’t know what they’re doing,” Campion says, reflecting on her time in the NYC audition scene. “I never want anyone to feel like that. I try to make everyone feel welcome; I learn their names, I see if they have injuries…I want to know what their life is like.”
